What's the minimum time period you need to work for Apple because of the sign on bonus? When can you leave without having to return it?
It's 1 year and technically not prorated in the offer letter, but I doubt they would ask for the whole thing back in good faith situations
1 year
I worked at Apple for 10 months, didn’t have to pay anything back. But I made clear that I can stay for 2 more months if required.
that is nice. is it the manager that helped with waving off repayment ? or is it the HR ? who decides ? I am falling short of 5.5 months for 2 years
U pay back the prorated portion of u leave before 1 year
Does it depend on the amount of sign on bonus? Maybe for higher bonuses, it's 2 years?
Good question!
Generally it does go higher for bigger bonuses eg 18 months. I hear they are not huge sticklers though as long as you leave on good terms.
Cool! I just wanted to make sure it's standard 1 year period and not something crazy like 2 years.
I left in 5 months and didn't have to pay anything back, but in my case, the reason of leaving were personal. I decided to go back to my country because of family reasons. When I had the conversation with my manager, I didn't even have to bring this up myself. He himself mentioned that I won't be asked to return joining/relocation bonus.
Does Apple give cash for relocation? How much? And is that asked to be returned?
my sign on is paid twice one in each year. I am planning to quit in 1.5 years (>18 months). any idea what is going to happen, how much will they be asking to repay ? is it up to manager ?

I think it is 1 year. If you leave before that you had to pay the sign on back.
Prorated portion, right?
