So i got offered another gig, how prudent would it be to give 2 weeks notice before the bonus gets paid out? So for example the new firm wants me to start asap but open to me starting in january or early feb.
Just worries these ppl wont pay me and make me quit same day i put in 2 weeks
Just wait until your bonus if paid if possible. In all other scenarios they can still cut your bonus.
As others posted here, immediately after you tender your resignation letter, you lose, you forfeit your Bonus even if you're willing to stay working at Citi until the end on February 2027.
What would've been your Bonus will then be redistributed to your other coworkers.
Submit your resignation letter After the Bonus money hits your bank account.
Depending on your job, you may then be required to do Garden Leave which could be 1 to 3 months long.
If yes, this means your earliest new job start date may be March 1.
You would've been required to Sign documentation during your Citi employment with Garden Leave language.
If the new place wants you to start immediately ask for a sign on bonus to cover your missed annual bonus otherwise wait. No point starting till 1/1 anyway due to holidays and then from there why not just wait the remaining 4 weeks…no need to give Citi any courtesy notice period just quit effective same day (when the bonus clears)
No notice until after bonus is paid and money in your account. Managers who know you are leaving will take from your bonus pool to give to others on the team, since once you give notice you are a lost cause and basically dead to c
@a2 yes i can do that. My question is around the 2 weeks. If they would hold a bonus back knowing im leaving right after its paid.
You have to stay until Feb in order to get your bonus. If you leave now, no bonus - it's that simple.
