Pharmaceuticals giant AstraZeneca is being sued over claims it refused to pay a worker nearly $130,000 in promised bonuses because she worked from home.

As reported by Reuters, Elmarie Bodes, who was AstraZeneca's senior director of business transformation until January, said in the lawsuit filed in South Carolina state court on Tuesday that she was owed a $124,000 performance bonus and $65,000 in stock options.
