Has anyone left EY before working for a full year? Did you have to pay back CPA bonus? Was this in our contract?

You signed something when they gave you that bonus, go back and read it.

Don't listen to anyone trying to convincing you to stay. I left even without having a job and don't regret it at all. So don't feel bad and leave if you are not happy. Life is too short.

Man up and stay another year or two unless you found a really good new job.

It's in the paperwork you signed for the bonus but I know people who have left under a year and the firm didn't ask them to pay it back

You dnt need to return the bonus for EY. But i recommend staying until senior promotion

Here's the correct answer: you do not have to pay back the CPA bonus; however, you signed a contract that said you would pay back your signing bonus (plus interest lol) if you left before 1 year

Hello
Anyone here in Corporate Banking at a BB? Is base comp same as IB (85~) with a smaller bonus %? I keep reading conflicting reports online and would love to hear from anyone in CB (or just their day to day and experience in general)

A HR question I really want to understand. ISRS HR quoted a podcast "The not so great resignation" saying 70% regret leaving and many want to go back to old employer. If this really the case the employee likely left due to higher pay at the new company. If they want to boomerang back they will likely come back at even a higher rate than they left the new company for. So getting double raise when they boomeranged. Isn't it unbeneficial, why not just give employee a 7% raise in the first place?
