offer letter that I signed 2 mo ago for my current role said I’d receive my signing bonus 30 days after starting. It’s been over 30 days. Reached out to the contract manager and she said it “slipped through the cracks” on behalf of finance dept. And that I’d get it not for this upcoming paycheck but the following (2.5 weeks from now). Has this happened to anyone? Should I just eat it and accept the fact that it “slipped through the cracks 🤪” or make noise? - first + only bipoc woman on the team

😭😭 I want to! like since we’re not following written contracts here… honestly I don’t see a future with them anyway. what are your thoughts?

continued: especially since there are conditions on if I leave before a year’s time that I’d need to return the bonus lol

It's my first time knowing that signing bonus must be returned if leaving prior completion of the one year period. Well, anyway it's a company discretion. I don't mind waiting for another 2 weeks if you ask me. Just no more slipping through the cracks next time.

Yes signing bonuses often have a clause they have to be returned if you stay for less than a year, not uncommon. Also if you leave, you must return the entire amount even though you pay taxes on it.

Just keep bugging them until they give you your money. Sometimes, processing takes a while, and sign-up bonuses aren't logged in on time.

If they don't hit the promised date it turns from an oops to a red flag.

Hi Fishes,

I recently got an offer from Accenture.

There is a component,

ATCI Skill Bonus - 1.3 L

Does anyone have a broader idea on this, It is mentioned that it will be divided and payed out Quarterly. But is there any chances for revoking this component from my package?

I’m getting put up for manager a year early. I have PPMD ,SM, and M support. Pretty much support from all the key individuals on my team and in my service line. Since it is a year early if i don’t get promoted this round I know it’ll come mid year but I do expect a good salary increase still without the promo. If I don’t get the promo nor a salary increase that I’m okay with, how do I let my partner know that I will begin to entertain outside offers? some of which have offered the manager role.

I worry that they may just cut me off any time soon since I feel I haven't been contributing as much as I want despite reaching out for any new requests. Thought?
