The feeling of getting 30% paycut is really lousy if you will to experience it yourself. It is like the company is taking advantage of your unemployment status to its own benefits. Do you think you will even work long there if the candidate accepted the offer? |

Sorry may be off topic. However, i just signed an employment letter for a new job and at the same day tendered my resignation letter. However, i would like to know, if it is possible for my new employer to change their mind on hiring me despite the fact that i have signed the employment letter.

The employment letter is akin to a contract, so the company is likely to keep to it. However there is usually a probation period which can be 3 months to a year. If the company does change it's mind over your employment, they will use the probation period to terminate you by not confirming you.

I think what he meant is that if your salary is too high, then taking a paycut is fine. However based on your current pay, 30% cut from 90k per ann i think is too much.
You should try to neg to 15-20% cut the most to your new employer? If he genuinely find you a better candidate after rounds of interviews, he would not give u such huge paycut. If not, I rather you should continue looking around and do some part time jobs for now. My case is similar to yours. I was jobless for 8 mths till i found my current job with no pay cut (same pay) During this period i took up insurance course since they are free and hunger for ppl to join them. In my resume, i explained i am still working as insurance but dont find it a job fit. (at least its cover my long breaks) Hope this helps. |
Hi, my colleagues are leaving one by one and sooner or later, I will be the only one left in the company. Will you leave too if the pros and cons are as below:
Pros: 'Freedom' in office, you learn and do work at your own time without any ppl rushing you and out pressure on you. Even if you are late for a 5 to 10 mins for work in the morning, the boss doesn't reprimand you, pays you the same monthly salary. Overall, the boss is kind of 'bochap' type as long as you do your work properly should be ok. Cons: Boss and wife who is an accountant are very stingy ppl. Boss reluctant to engage associates to help out and so work which should belong to associates level will pile up and he will engage interns who are inexperienced to do the work instead, just to save costs. Boss is very lazy, don't take calls or return calls to customers but charge customers high bills and doesn't look into the files of the customers but rely on the interns to do the job. Boss will give wrong advice to customers and charge them for high bills. Boss and accountant wife tend to do 'dirty things' such as putting customer's deposit money into their own private account first then when the time to return the money to the customers, they then return. Overall, the boss is not professional in his conduct and some customers stopped engaging his service midway as the customers felt that he is not concerned over their matter and more interested in charging bills on them. My existing colleagues are leaving one by one soon, 2 interns are leaving in July and the other colleague stated earlier that if the two interns leave, he will leave too. The other colleague of mine is planning to leave she has stayed in the company for 9 years. Will you leave too if you were me? |
