Should be a given. RSUs and Bonus should be comp’ed for if leaving early otherwise there’s not much incentive to leave before bonus hits. Often they do this as promising to pay you a full year bonus during bonus cycle instead of an up front but out of your bonus.

It should be pretty standard as VP1 said. My company included it as part of my signing bonus.

Standard and expected. It’s a large part of your income in finance. Companies understand this and usually pro rate your expected bonus or give you a sign on to cover

Hmm but these are for traditional IB and PE firms, right? What about for REPE?

It should apply across the board

Should be standard at any/all companies. If they won’t do it, should make you question their commitment.
