Please place your hands behind your back while Envoy handcuffs you to this circus if you choose.

For ENY that $50k isn’t paid until you flow. So for guys that eventually qualify for the two $25k bonuses, they will be paid $120k upon flow to AA. The $30k CA bonus is the only thing paid pre-flow and comes with a 3 year commitment, not pro-rated. Envoy wants that $30k back within 30 days of your resignation if you leave before 3 years.

Are we going to have to sign something to get the $30k or are they just going to deposit $22k after taxes in our account, then demand $30k back when we go somewhere else?

So, the bonuses are completely meaningless. People who were going to stay/flow anyway will make extra money, and everybody else who can do addition realizes they'll make more money than this and have a better QoL, even if they go to an LCC a year earlier than flow. This might encourage more people to at least apply to AA outside the flow, but that's about it.

You’re right. It’ll be more. I don’t understand why people can’t wrap their head around the fact that withholding is different than actual taxes. Yes, the withholding is higher. However, you’ll get a bunch of it back when you file because the effective tax is lower than what the withholding is.
