I just negotiated a $5,000 retention bonus to stay another year. Not sure how I feel. I was 100% ready to leave for a travel gig, but management threw just enough money at me to make me second-guess my exit. Now I’m worried I’ve locked myself into another year of the same problems for a bonus that’s going to be taxed at 40%. What would you have done?

Would have taken that travel gig. Think about how much nursing school was! Think about your value, contributions, impact, and hard work. They would’ve had to give me 20k. If they can give a new hire 20k sign on bonus then they can give you the same to keep a rockstar employee.

Agreed!

Travel gig hands down. I myself just finished a 3 yr retention bonus contract. What a relief. I didn’t want to have to pay back its entirety when I technically only received 60%…worst year of my life waiting on the time to tick by. I crossed that bridge twice and smiled as I watched it burn….

Sometimes it’s “the devil you know.” Is there a penalty for leaving early?

People selling risky assets at the lows just to pile into safe heavens that barely appreciate seems like an logical investment strategy. Please stop. Invest in broad indexes and throw away the keys.
