IRS once screwed up a refund check and sent me 4.07 instead of $407. I let it slide for a couple of years and then when I was truly broke and about to get married, I called them and they saw the error... They sent me a check for like $582 (they added interest). But then the next year they sent me a 1099-INT for the interest income they paid me, so I owed taxes on it.
This happened as a test a few years back when there was only one spot for a female partner so the tested 3 women. First one reported it right away and got honesty points. Second kept it and got sales acumen points. Third one gambled, won big, retuned the overage and Kept the game. But only one made partner. You know which one, right? The one with the big tits
Nah, it’s Deloitte.... we’re a professional services firm that audits companies for a living. We’d never catch anything like that. You’re good!!!
Uhhh... analyst pulling in $2000 bi weekly?! Fake news. At least make the lie work with good numbers..
Yes for sure. Doubts your integrity if you don't! Not worth it.
Once you leave you don’t have to pay it back. Look it up. Payroll errors are the company’s issue not yours. My colleague got a double severance from VMware. He moved the money and they could not back it out. 5 years later nothing has happened.
They def asked for it back. Doesn’t mean you have to pay it. Talk to an employment attorney to verify.
@p2 that person is a serious fool
You do know that you work for an accounting firm, correct? But this happened to me many years ago, first job out of school, mixed my check with someone else, pay check was $54k plus a hefty add to my 401k, told my boss, they reversed it but got to keep the gains in my 401k couple hundred
Listen up Deloitte analyst. Look at it this way. This is the only way that the firm will ever pay a non partner what they are worth. Chances are you can collect until the end of the quarter or end of year. That being said 3 months = 6 biweekly cycles. = 120k or 480k for the year. At your current 50k a year you would be ahead 2.2 years or 7 years by end of the year (baked in some small incremental increases and deducted 1.5 Years). Leave by the end of the year or end of quarter. Either way you win since most kids out of school avg 2-3 years at their first firm
Yes.
More importantly ... why risk asking this fish bowl?!? Your strategy needs a strategy
Yea they will take it out of your future paychecks so you might be working free for a few months :)
Lol if this is true I’d be curious to see what happens if he just doesn’t say anything
Hey dummy don’t spend it they’ll
Eventually make you pay it bacm

Dilly dilly milli vanilli.
UPDATE: Still haven’t told anyone yet
Never
Guys, it’s a joke
Such terrible advice on this thread. You really think the company has no way of getting it back from you? Do you know how much these firms spend on legal fees?
This happened with my wife at a big tech company. We let them knew and paid back. Got to keep deposits that they made to 401k. We asked for legal advice before we decided to pay back. And the conclusion was, there is no legal way you can win this battle
