I was offered a great signing bonus but it’s tied to a 3-year contract. Would that be a dealbreaker for you? I was thinking 2 years at the most would be reasonable.

Depends, do you feel like you'd be holding yourself back by being there 3 years?

What's the downside of staying the extra year for you?

You have to evaluate how good the bonus is, but it really depends on where you see yourself in the future, and if it's where you want to be.

For me it would be a deciding factor but it would not be the only one to make the decision. Can you talk to them and let them know that you want a 2 year contract?

No, that wouldn't be a dealbreaker for me. I would want to make sure the bonus is a good one, but I would be willing to commit to a 3-year contract if it means getting a good bonus.

If the bonus is good, as are the working conditions and everything included in the contract, of course. Don't you know anyone who has worked there who can give you an inside opinion of the place? That would certainly help you make a more informed decision.

It would depend on the specifics of the contract. Generally, I wouldn't want to be locked into a long-term contract, but if the bonus is really great, I might be willing to sign up for a shorter term.

My husband just received a job offer on an opportunity he is really excited about. It would be great for his career and they are giving the 15% jump in base he asked for, however they won’t share what the target bonus amount would be. It’s an executive director position, so I would assume it’s a decent target bonus, but without that in writing it could honestly be a gift basket at the end of the year. Is it a red flag for them to not share this? His total comp could be less at this new job…
