1. I usually advise people to talk to a lawyer, but in your situation, nothing has happened yet. The company hasn't actually done anything that should concern you.
2. Follow the letter of whatever deal you had for your sign-on bonus. If your contract says you have to return it, do so. If it says it is pro-rated, do so. Don't invent new rules. If the contract doesn't say anything about returning it, don't.
3. Just make sure that your conduct is above reproach. Don't give them any excuse for going after you for any reason. Act professional, leave, you don't owe them anything.
- FireBeyond 12y agor.e. point 1 - apparently the company has (proactively?) contacted recruiters to advise them that this person is unreliable, i.e. quit without notice (regardless of the fact that even if so, they were perfectly within their rights to do so).
- dragonwriter 12y ago> r.e. point 1 - apparently the company has (proactively?) contacted recruiters to advise them that this person is unreliable, i.e. quit without notice (regardless of the fact that even if so, they were perfectly within their rights to do so). Which, given that the OP had provided notice to your manager, and left immediately only because directed to by the company's HR manager, would seem to be damaging information concerning the OP's usual employment that was false and that the company knew, or reasonably should have known, was false -- i.e., quite likely actionable slander. So, good reason to talk to a lawyer, especially if the OP believes the company's activities are likely to escalate if not constrained.
