Again, does not mean tuition is not comp - just because there is a repayment obligation, does not mean you dont get the $$ value - you get it at the time of vest (which is usually post your b school years). Compensation paid by employers is compensation - and tech firms regularly include sign on bonus in Y1 comp, which has a clawback as well. Consulting firms give retention bonuses with clawbacks, each employer attaches hooks, the hooks come in different forms. Equity has hooks via a perpetual 4 year grant that vests over time. Just because there are hooks, does not diminish monetary value of the comp. These scholarships are a form of a retention bonus, to ensure people with potential stay back.

Also, for Exec MBAs, there is a stay component within tuition, which the firm covers, my tuition was $200k+, which on a pretax basis is approx 300k. I dont have to write off anything, coz my employer paid my school fees for each semester.

Attorney, 6 years experience, $950k total comp. The job is fun but not the stress and hours required to fix everyone’s problems.

I need help figuring out if I’m being underpaid. I’m working in real estate private equity and I focus on fund models and property valuations. I’m currently at base $80k and 20% bonus. On top of that I have 5 years experience and a masters in finance. I’m good at my job and receive positive reviews from everyone. I feel like I should be compensated better but the company says that’s what they think I’m worth. Any help or insights would be great!

You wanna work with your open heart but ppl above you wont let it because in the end their position will be in danger. Why would be in danger?
