I am leaving my company before completing an year ( 10 months ), i wanted to ask how has been everyone's experience in regards to the clause of the Joining bonus, have u been asked to return it or not ??

Yep though it might be prorated and only a % of the total

You’d want to read through the acceptance language. I would say most will ask for either for a partial back or full payment. Depends on your employee standing as you live in most cases.

Might this be different for senior management? Haven't heard that myself. Maybe it depends on the company

I was in the same situation recently when as per the clause, had to return the entire amount if I leave before the one year anniversary. I resigned a month before that and was three weeks shy of anniversary including my resignation period. The employer offered a couple of options to retain and I leveraged that asking to waive off the sign on bonus amount for. They happily obliged :)

Talk to your HR and tell them about your unique circumstances on why you are leaving and they would in turn talk to your manager for approval. Talk to your manager too and try to get them on your side! Good luck.

I had to pay back a percentage of mine, based on a schedule. You should be able to determine how much (if any) you'll owe back by checking your contract/offer letter.

I've completed the final rounds for 2 companies: AWS as an L7 Principal PMT and another that's a Series-A funded startup in the HCM space. I expect offers from both: AWS around $400k TC ($250k base + $150k stock) and the startup should be around $300k TC ($250k base + 20% bonus). If comp wasn't the ONLY consideration, what would you do? The AWS role will be an IC role and more hands-on/technical. The startup will be a CPO role reporting to the CEO with a team of about 50 devs+PMs.

PMs, If your company is an AWS shop, they just released two new cool features to Cloud Watch that is extremely valuable to PMs. The first one is Cloud Watch Evidently that allows for non-deployment A/B testing and the second is Cloud Watch RUM for user and performance monitoring. Definitely look into them since I’m sure the red tape involved to use them is a lot less that 3rd party tools.
