Job offer from EY, I have investments that I will need to sell because of independence. Can I ask for larger signing bonus because of the investment sell off I will need to do in order to join?

You don't have to sell. You just can't sell after you join until you leave

This is categorically false, and one of multiple things VP has been wrong for that I have read on here. Not selling restricted securities at a B4 is a serious serious issue.
What firm are you with, VP?

You can try to ask but I highly doubt that would fly. Just buy index ETFs.

Yes you can. And you should

Tell them that you are long on several securities which you have a very close connection to and as a result of you taking the job, you will not be able to take part of the upcoming gains..and you have calculated it at xx thousand dollars and would like that as a part of the sign on bonus.

They will prolly give you 25-50% of what you sask for. But make your ask reasonable - don’t over ask

smart

You can ask for a larger signing bonus for any reason or no reason at all. Whether they give it to you is a different story. If they refuse are you going to walk away?
