My current workplace has a yearly bonus and you have to be employed at the time of payout to get it. Has anyone successfully gotten a job offer to give a signing bonus of at least that bonus as an incentive to move companies?

I haven't yet but should really try. We have a similar scheme at my workplace. The main difference is that instead of making the bonus a one time payment, they've split it into two payments spaced six months apart. It's a scummy, effective way to keep employees from leaving.

Ive done that for hires.

Hi all,

After the final interview, HR reached out and said they would like to extend an offer. HR gave a ball park of 135k - 145k base with about 15k in sign-on equity and 20k annual bonus.

After a couple of days, HR person came back with with 125k base and 20k annual bonus. No sign-on equity anymore. What should I do given that these numbers seem way lower than the initial range provided? HR claimed it’s because of “market conditions”.
