So I know there are lots of people with good experience and advice here, even if you are retired.
I have a question on behalf of my nephew. He just received an offer letter where the terms of the sign on bonus are that if he leaves prior to 36 months, for any reason, he must pay it back. While interviewing, he was told they would buy out his current bonus, but this doesn't seem like that is factual, they are, in essence, making it part of his pay.
I am not an expert in this area, but it seems wrong to make him pay it back under a situation that is not in his control, and also, 36 months seems like it is too long.
I told him he should not accept as is, but try to negotiate better terms, of course, I don't know what to recomomend!
I would appreciate any thoughts on this situation if you have experience in this arena.
Thank you.
