Thread regarding Elevance Health (Anthem) layoffs

I left before a retention bonus was fully vested and Elevance didn't attempt to claw it back. However, this may have been due to an "alleged" discrimination issue where they "appeared" to have hiring quotas that were gender and race based.

What happens if the offer agreement states that the signing bonus must be repaid within 30 days if you leave before one year, but no one has contacted you about it? I haven’t received any communication from HR or my former manager regarding the repayment process.

Should I proactively reach out to HR to initiate repayment, or is HR responsible for providing the repayment terms, including method, timeline, and instructions?

read all the paperwork you were sent upon hire, if none of it says anything you can look up in Pulse or annon call HR but in my eyes, if I don't have an agreement of repayment in writing at time of hire, its mine.

If you are going anyway I would
Not mention to them. They may miss it with so much turn over.

Go back to the document you signed. The answer is yes, if you leave voluntarily you have to pay it back. If RIFd it’s yours.

If the job is ki-ling your mental health, its worth the sign on bonus. But just make sure you have another job to jump to. The market is horrible.

I hope you get an answer to this question. I have a handful of people on my team that would also like to know this answer.

If we have to use sign on bonuses to get you to come to work here, it should be quite telling that you (and others) are willing to forgo those funds to get out of this toxic and stressful environment. If only the churn would calm down -- we could stop hiring with a turn-and-burn philosophy.

I'd love to see this company return to being the valued employer it once was.

Just ask HR or check Pulse/policies.
