⭐1⭐

或end-of-year bonus
年终奖
bonus /ˈbəʊnəs/ n.奖金
【解释】
Put simply, a year-end bonus is a reward that companies pay their workers.
【例句】
电影《金钱世界 》All the Money in the World台词:

你表现的很好,这会反映在你的年终奖上的。
The company gave everyone a $10,000 year-end bonus last week.

⭐2⭐
year-end party
或end-of-year party
年会
【解释】
我们平时说的“年会”更像是一个派对,有抽奖环节、节目表演、领导讲话等等,所以用party更贴切,而不是meeting/conference(正儿八经的开会)。
【例句】
The year-end party of the company was a blast. We had a great time.
公司年会真的是非常热闹,我们玩得非常开心。
When are you going hold the year-end party?
你们什么时候举办年会呀?

n.(工资之外的)补贴,津贴,额外待遇
perk比较口语化,比较正式的书面用语是:
perquisite /ˈpɜːrkwɪzɪt/ n.补贴;津贴
【解释】
Perks are the things you receive as well as your wages for doing a particular job
【例句】
Perks offered by the firm include a car and free health insurance
/ɪnˈʃʊrəns/.
公司给予的额外待遇包括一辆汽车和免费健康保险。
