Sign on bonuses are discretionary and depend on the market and competition for the role at any given time. When quality candidates outnumber roles they are less likely to give sign on bonuses as they don’t need to

like

The only time I've really seen sign-on bonuses is where the person joining is losing a bonus at the old firm, and we try and compensate for that, or where the salary level is broadly similar for the same grade to try and sweeten the deal.

Yes it is normal. Just go back and ask about it.

Agreed with EY1 I was waiting for my bonus before moving to the next firm but the firm wanted me to started early so I asked them to match.

I got one starting at the senior level.

Sounds like a breach of their oral offer. Ask for it, if they duck then walk.

I didn’t think firms still did signing bonuses

I have a somewhat unsteady, gappy work history due to several health issues — serious ones — that have gotten in the way since I passed the bar. My first major health issue I can easily explain as it’s physical, a major concussion. My other health issues are severe depression that affected my ability to work steadily. I am better finally, and ready to get back to work, but I don’t know how to explain this or even approach this during interviews/resume writing.

Anyone have any helpful advice?

Hi Fishes I am in a complex situation, please help me out..

I got an offer with TCS and initially selected joining date as Jan 2.. but current org released me in 1 month instead of 3 months.. I asked TCS HR and others for early Onboarding but they didn't respond well..

After that I got one offer and joined immediately. But now I don't like to work here as I have to go to office all 5 days mandatorily, also role is slightly new to me.

How can join in TCS on the selected date ?
Any possibility?
