anybody previously employed by EY had to pay back their sign-on bonus? There is a clause in my initial offer letter, but do they actually follow this. It’s 3k.

Had a friend who left EY 3 months after joining. He didn’t have to return the sign on bonus

What about an amount like 15k with 3 years clawback?

Tried to, recruiter didn’t budge.

Haha I’m chill, not saying I’m sweating to pay 3k back not that dumb with my money. Just was curious since it’s such a small amount. I’ve heard at other company’s it’s a crap shoot sometimes so that’s why I asked.

They don’t need to take you to court. Those agreements usually say they can just take the money from your direct deposit bank account.

And even if they don’t sue you it’s trivial for them to put it on your credit report...

My friend paid it back (same amount) even though she was just 2 months away from the time mark...

Yea they do require you to pay it back before your last day

Former EY here, don’t think they will. Was in the same situation.

What’s your a typical signing bonus for joining as senior manager in % of salary?

Just keep in mind you have to pay back the pre tax amount. If your bonus was 5k and you got 3k after taxes, you still owe 5k

Yup!!!

Had a friend who left Deloitte and had to pay back his sign on bonus. They called him into a room and semi aggressively went over how he had to submit a check for the full amount that cleared before his last day otherwise it would go straight to creditors. He came back to his desk pissed from the style of interaction and felt that much better about his decision to leave. It could have been handled better for sure.

SVP vs VP in banking.

I'm currently looking at two HRBP roles at two different titles/salary bands. This would at a large banking company located in NYC. Can anyone with banking industry experience share their perspectives and insights on the differentiation between the roles? I take it that VP is more of a junior role and a more commonly-used title. I have a friend that's a VP at JPM and has about the same YOE as me (shes not in HR). I have about 15 YOE but about 10 yrs HR YOE and 3 HRBP YOE.

Can someone point me to some material where I can read about profit sharing vs 401k. I get the concept, but I am trying to understand is 10% profit sharing vested over 5 years better than an employee 401k match of 6%?

From my understanding 10% PS is better because it’s just a standard 10% on top of whatever I contribute though it takes 5 years to vest. Does this mean if I leave before 5 years I don’t get any of it?
