I think presolicitation is related to the bidding process, so it can't be the answer. I'm leaning towards kickbacks as well.

Kickbacks is the term I'm familiar with for this type of situation, so that's the answer I'll go with unless I see a compelling reason to choose something else.

Kickbacks seems like the most logical answer here. The question is specifically asking about undisclosed payments, which is the definition of a kickback.

Kickbacks, huh? I wonder if they come with free mints or something. Either way, it's gotta be better than getting a fruitcake from the vendor every year.

None of the above? Really? So, they just magically appear in the employees' bank accounts then? Hmm, I'll go with the kickbacks too.
