<p>Rep Waxman asks financial firms for information about bonuses.</p>
<p>"Waxman, a California Democrat, asked the nine banks to divulge total company compensation, average compensation for each employee broken down by salaries, bonuses, and benefits, and the reasons for any year-to-year changes in the amounts for 2006, 2007 and 2008.</p>
<p>Waxman also asked for the number of employees paid or projected to be paid more than $500,000, as well as the total and projected compensation for the banks’ 10 highest-paid employees.</p>
<p>More than one-third of Wall Street employees surveyed by a recruitment Web site expect a bigger bonus this year than last year even amid the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression. "</p>
