The best I remember is that a Danish bank (I think it was "Nordea" or "Danske Bank", but I'm not sure and my search-karma seems to have gone for the day) had a CEO who got a huge bonus for meeting his goals in making a profit back in 2009 or 2010.
The way he did that, though, was to fire 30% of the staff (and branches) and living off the profit from the hard work those 30% did the previous years - the next years they had bigger and bigger deficits, because they couldn't keep living off previous years loans.
