I'm an experienced hire and didn't ask for a sign on bonus. They gave me $4K anyway. I didn't negotiate that...(I focused on other things)

Following, about to enter similar negotiations

Depending on where salary lands after that negotiation piece, my ask will be in the 8-15% range with a 1-yr commitment tied to the bonus.

I came in as experienced with MBA in HC and topped the salary scale but did not receive a signing bonus

They couldn't meet my salary request through base and gave me a 15k sign on bonus instead

@C1 that's exactly what I'm planning for as a contingency. Deloitte?

They gave me $15k and would not negotiate

Only know first year MBA signing bonus:
W/summer intern & early sign = 42.5
W/summer intern not early = 25
W/o intern = 35

Deloitte doesn't give signing bonuses to EH with grad degrees. I asked multiple times and was told it was against policy (MBA as well)
