The relocation benefits have to be paid back (prorated) until two years, so it sounds plausible enough. For what it's worth (not much without numbers on growth and turnover), I've been with them for about 2.5 years and am around the 60th percentile for tenure among Seattle-based employees.

Two years to work off a relo bonus is so absurd. Why does anybody take that deal?
Because they also give you a sign bonus in two parts, a lump sum for the first year, and the second year it is divided between the 12 paychecks. After two years, both the bonus and relocation have vested.
