The Criminal card Compromised Employee states the following:

[Recurring Credits]: 1

Use this credit during traces.

Gain 1 [credit] whenever the Corp rezzes a piece of ice.

Now, the recurring credits are obviously cumulative when you have more than one copy of the card, but what about the gain of 1 [credit]? Based upon the exact wording, I can understand both sides of the arguement - if the source of the credit is the card itself, then it would be cumulative, but if the credit is a "status" that simply is (or is NOT) based upon the presence (or LACK) of one or more of this card in play, then it would not be cumulative. I hope I'm simply missing the rule that clarifies this.

Please illuminate me, because I can't decide which is more correct. Thanks, all!

They would both trigger when an ice is rezzed. You would resolve them one at a time, and gain both credits. They are two seperate conditional abilities.
