Reply to comment by MarcableFluke in Retention Bonus mathematics by don_ram86

Does the absolute amount matter?

If it does. Call it 100k salary with a 20k bonus for staying 8months ... what offer would it take today to forfeit that bonus?

Again, it depends on how long until you expect to receive a similar offer. You're trying to solve a mathematical equation without filling in all of the variables.

Lamo.... I provided my personal experience. It has been 4.25month which is my personal experience in job searches... but i have no idea if this 'normal' since the first was 6m in '08 ... 11months in '11 and 0 months in '14 & '15....

So I'm trending down... but I have no idea what is expected in the current environment.. that's why I am asking.

Thanks!!
