The workers got bonuses after the tax cuts at some companies because it was cheap advertising and a public relations opportunity. It was also a one time payment instead of an actual increase to their base pay (because the tax cuts didn’t change the value of their labor). Of course, these bonus payments made in the first 2.5 months of the year in 2018 were allowed a 35 percent deduction instead of 21%, locking in a permanent tax difference.
