Since 1997, Mercedes has been sharing a part of the profits with its employees. In 2022, about 100,000 workers earned an extra €6,000 as a "token of respect" after a profitable 2021. Following last year's solid performance, the three-pointed star is happy to announce a record profit-sharing bonus of €7,300. At current exchange rates, that works out to just over $7,900. The fat bonus will be handed out to approximately 93,000 eligible employees.
