    They got $50,000 signing checks.

    But if they quit before 5 years, they owe $10,000 for each year.

    How many of them blew the $50k on a truck, or paid their CC bills with it the first week?

    Now they’re stuck there.

      They aren’t even getting paid right now, several of them complained about not getting their salary in the ICE private subreddit. And if a new administration comes in and fires them, they’re on the hook for 30k and cannot declare bankruptcy to escape from the debt.

        None of them got $50k, though. It’s a structured bonus program. They don’t get the full amount until after they hit several milestones.

      it’s hard to find specifics but last time I checked they don’t get the full $50,000 immediately. It’s something like $10k immediately, then $10k after a probationary period, then $10k a year for the next three years.
