There are many situations when you would have to register for a company-wide bonus, particularly if it has tax implications or other potential downsides. Bonuses paid in stock are a good example, you are on the hook for the tax whether or not you make a profit on the stock, so its possible you can lose money. If the stock is floated on an exchange in the US but you are not, then you will have to start filing tax returns in the US. Some people may not want that, especially if its only for a few hundred quid.
