Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.48.94.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Get Together, City Living, Get to Work, Vampire
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? get a sim a new job
What happens when the bug occurs? Everytime a sim gets a new job, some 600-700 simoleons are instantly added to the household money and career rewards for 2nd and 3rd level are added to the inventory.
What do you expect to see? no instant money and no career rewards
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Yes
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure
I have not added new CC recently and it was working just fine before. Haven't played in a while so maybe some new update is responsible?
Solved! Go to Solution.

@larifari9023 - does your sim have the "Connections" trait? A sim that has purchased the special trait from the rewards store will start a new career at the 4th level, so any rewards for the levels 1 - 3 will automatically be added to the household.
Edit for more info:
No Connections traits: High School A starts at level 3; High School B starts at level 2 (All cash and item rewards are received for the skipped levels). High School C, D and F or a CAS created adult all start at level 1.
With Connections trait: Start at Level 4 (All cash and item rewards are received for the skipped levels), regardless of grades or CAS creation
Teen jobs: Grade School A or B starts at level 2 (with cash reward); Grade School C, D and F start at level 1

I also have a couple of other bugs. Sims getting stuck at work/school. Sims looking heavily pregnant the second they get pregnant(only seen on one sim so far). Sims having the thirsty moodlet (from the vampire pack) even though they're not vampires(also only encountered once so far).

mods/cc can get outdated with patches. Sounds like you're using something that's no longer compatible with the game.
Have you tried this without any mods installed at all ?
All issues reported in the bug forum must be tested on a vanilla game with no mods/cc added
Good Luck

Darn it! I thought if the reward for passing a level includes cash, you got the cash too. Back to your regularly scheduled bug squishing

I thanks for your answer. I will try it without any mods today. No none of the sims had the connections trait.

Yes, if you have the connections reward trait or your sim grew up with an A (not too sure on B, my sims are always A students) they will start at a higher level and when they get their job, they will receive all cash rewards, bonus items, and advanced to level 3 for connection (I believe) and level 4 for grade A.
