Recovery of joining bonus after FNF.
I had a short stint in a company, where I had a not so good experience.
(TL:DR: They had 0 clarity on what they were doing, overhired and asked me to leave 1.5 months later).
I had a fairly decent joining bonus as a part of compensation, which was supposed to be returned if I leave within 1 year.
However they never asked me to return it and also gave me a letter certifying the full and final settlement had been completed (Also transferred salary for the last month I spent there).
I am not sure what to do with my joining bonus? Should I keep it or can they come back one fine day and ask me to return it.
Has this happened to anyone else?

Depends on what's written in your Joining letter.
Keep it man. They didn't feel guilty about layoffs. So don't feel guilty about keeping the bonus.
Put it in a FD for few months just in case they come back asking for it.
