But now I want switch as salary is low, but i have signed an bond due to which I cant leave the company till 2026 December.

April 21, 2025 at 2:44 amIf you’re able to get a better offer go for it. Don’t bother about the bond such kind of bonds are illegal and if the company wants to pursue, send them a legal notice through a lawyer by spending about ₹1000.-

April 21, 2025 at 3:02 amYour salary slip will serve as proof.Your PF statement is proof.
As you grow, the first job though it taught a lot, no one will bother. Your most recent will only matter and how you crack interviews.
So focus on preparing and clearing the interview.
Serve notice period.
Don’t burn bridges.-

April 21, 2025 at 3:06 amI do have the salary slip, but not the pf. They were deducting the pf amount of mine and 12% of the company also from my salary. So I had not opted for it.

April 21, 2025 at 3:36 amThe bond is illegal. Funny how the company is charging GST . You can actually ask them what goods or service they are providing.-

April 21, 2025 at 1:16 pmThe allowance is if the company can show that they have invested in training and require the employee to serve a reasonable timeframe to recover the cost. Considering that very few companies spend any money on external training and the cost of training is limited to training system / platform subscriptions…the company will have a challenge.Next they have essentially blackmailed employees to sign under duress a bond – in a market where unemployment is rife – do people really have a choice of not signing up unfair agreements as a fresher.

April 21, 2025 at 4:08 amDon’t do anything stupid… it’s ok you can shell 1,00,000 but don’t compromise on the integrity! If not now, later point in your career… You can very well get caught in BGC!Although 1L, might sound high now… when you are at 40/50… you wouldn’t want to risk your job and put it on stake!
Act wisely bro!
Don’t listen to bond is illegal in India retards ! Yes it may be but more is on the EPFO! Your date of leaving will be blank and your future employers will just kick you out!
