You’re technically supposed to get the two weeks anyways because in banking when you give your “two weeks notice” you actually have to stop working immediately. This is because there is a risk of you taking confidential info with you to a competitor.
That’s what I thought but HR is saying otherwise
On the bright side, you still have your heath.

Thanks yang
No, their signing bonus this year was a heath bar.
They do have to pay it and you can sue if they don't. If they want to fire you today then they have that right, but I'd assume that comes with some severance worth > 2 weeks anyway.
Only loophole would be if they have something in the contract if you leave before 12 months but I doubt something like that is in there or enforceable. Make them pay because you should not allow sly behavior to be rewarded and it's your duty to punish it.
This isn’t normal at all lol. You def are owed those 2 weeks of payroll since you should be still “employed” during your notice period.
Top comments were prob by high school students who haven’t even stepped inside an office yet
I emailed HR today and they essentially told me to kick rocks so I need to call again and try to escalate this
Do they ask you to leave immediately if you're leaving banking?
