UNDATED (WHDH) -- As you're considering what to buy this holiday season, are you thinking of getting something for your boss?

There are a lot of mixed feelings about whether it's a good thing to do.

Here's what experts from Today Money said:

1) Look at office culture

2) Keep it simple

3) Chain of command

Scope out the office politics to make sure if giving a gift is allowed or accepted.

If you're uncomfortable doing it, don't feel like you have to.

Also, keep it simple. You could be resented if you give something too nice.

 

Make sure to follow the chain of command.

If you are "gifting up" - don't ignore your immediate supervisor and head to the CEO’s office.
