I quit and my firm did ask me to pay back the sign on bonus. My contract did say that if I quit my within one year I needed to pay them back tho.
did u pay what you got post tax or the pre tax amount?
pre-tax.
How long did they give you to pay it back?
Did you quit as a first year or second
Has anyone not paid it back successfully?
Left in under a year and never had to pay back signing bonus (top BB). Signing offer did say that I would have to pay it back, but they never asked lol
Yes you have to, full pay/ free tax.
