:confused:
I found a new job last year around this time, and the employer paid my moving expenses and I got a bonus. I signed an acceptence letter saying that if I quit or was terminated before my year anniversary that I would pay back the moving expenses and bonus ($7,000).

Well, this was not the best move for me or my career. I have been unhappy because my boss is a jerk. I have never been so miserable. Anyway, I've been at my job for 6 weeks less than a year, and I expect my boss is going to fire me. Maybe even as soon as tomorrow.

I also moved sooner than I wanted to (I was still in my Master's program when I left and therefore didn't get reimbursed for my tuition from my previous employer. I figured to just use my bonus for that)

Question is, will I have to pay back the $7,000 with only 6 more weeks to go?!? I moved all the way to Arkansas from Michigan. Does that not count for anything? Do I have any recourse to have the $7000 pro-rated?

If the agreement was one year or pay it back, if it has been less than one year, you pay it back. If you wanted to negotiate repaying a pro-rated amount, the time to do so was before you accepted this offer.

We cannot evaluate the enforceability of an agreement we haven't read. You will need to show it to a local attorney.
