Has anyone left consulting without paying back your signing bonus? Did you ever have to pay back? Or did they deduct that from your final paycheck?

Lots of people do.

Sometimes folks fall through the cracks and firms forget to claw the bonus back, but it’s rare and you can’t count on it.

Most firms will not deduct from your final paycheck, they’ll send you a bill. If you don’t pay they just send it to collections.

or you can just stay longer

Yes I left and got a bill and also a bill showing amount + interest if I don’t pay back in 6 months. I sent a check just because I didn’t want to end up paying more or have my info sent to collections.
They don’t take it from your paycheck usually.

FYI, your GCO can also waive this. It’s always worth an ask to see if they will.

Hi Fishes,
I had given interview for network security architect position in Feb last week. And as per recruiter, I got selected for that role. I have been asked to share the documents on March 1st. I did a few followup for the offer letter update and they asked me 2 wait for 2-3 weeks. And now they are saying position has gone on hold after I did another followup.
Could it be because of expected salary ?

Today I had a very transparent conversation with my TA Director. I was not eligible for the merit increase due to my start date.

She mentioned that she was going to look into it with her boss to see where they can meet me at. Or do you think I overstepped the line By being so transparent about my wants for compensation and within the organization?

I’m graduating from my MSA program and I have two offers:

2) CMAAS @ PwC (trying to move offer to valuations)

I want to use these TAS roles to move into more M&A advisory roles like IB/Corp Dev. PwC comp is a decent amount higher due to the $10k salary increase so it makes the decision a bit harder. Would CMAAS make it impossible to make the jump to IB-type roles due to how much technical accounting is involved?
