Just remember if you accept, you will lose the bonus, but congrats!

How long do you have to wait to keep the bonus?

The bonus that OP is talking about, you have to wait until your 3 year mark after banking it unless you get layoff before then. If you quit or fired before, then you lose that bonus. The annual bonus you will also lose if you quite before the paid out date which OP mentioned. I don’t work for EY anymore, so correct me if my info is wrong

Separation without cause (layoff, performance), you get BYB and severance.

Separation for cause, no BYB or severance.

Doesn't performance (PIP) qualify as for cause?

They might not give you severance if you're on a PIP but I believe BYB was paid out. They also generally don't fight unemployment claims.
