I'm a new grad set to join at ZS in a months. Although I signed my offer several months ago, I haven't received my signing bonus. Should I reach out to HR/the recruiter? Or does the signing bonus usually get sent out after one officially starts working? Thanks!

Your bonus usually gets paid after you start working

My bonus was paid the pay cycle before I started working (about 10 days before my start date)

Don't flat out ask the recruiter for the sign-on bonus. Ask them about it indirectly by requesting some information about when and how it shall be paid to you. You'll most likely get your answer. Congrats.

Ask about the timing. I got mine 8 months before start but that was in business school

There is no harm in emailing the recruiter to confirm how the payment will work and see if maybe they need your direct deposit info or some paperwork.

Should I have been told I get a bonus when I signed on or are they typically a surprise?
