They realized that your work was more valuable than expected and you received retroactive pay.

I was paid for three additional weeks from the first employer I worked for out of college after I left them. They never came back asking for it and that’s been 10 years ago.

The best answer is put it in a savings account and don't touch it. If they come back for it, you'll have it and can plead ignorance. If they don't come back for it in a full calendar year, their books are closed and they aren't coming for it.

salary is salary, its not based on hours worked to qualify.

if you still worked there 1 day of that month them yes you are owed and deserve that full months pay.

do you think they would ever pay you extra for all the times they got extra work from you beyond what was normally required? salary pay is designed to cheat you for working long hours without overtime pay

I know a guy I worked with who quit but kept getting paid for about a year after he left. He never told them anything. He recently received a certified email demanding well over $100k to be returned or legal action will be taken.

Funny thing is that the guy is highly educated and had a respectable position. He drank the corporate Kool aid as an employee. I think it is funny imagining the water cooler talk at the office amongst all the superiors he gave blowies to, and their dumbfounded belief that he could do such a thing. The guy was nice but a sensationalist and spread rumors and lies. The middle managers all fell for it

Deposit the check. Call them and tell them you’re still getting checks. If they want the money back, ask them for an amount in writing and itemized by dates. Make sure they process the refunds so you don’t get hit in taxes for income you didn’t receive.
