| Apr 17, 2013 at 4:48 | comment | added | The Photon | The 3 month notice period sounds more like a bluff than a real threat. If you give only 1 day notice all you lose is your last paycheck. If you give 3 months notice you probably lose 3 months' paycheck. I know which I would pick. | |

| Apr 15, 2013 at 15:53 | comment | added | pdr | @Chad: I agree with that, but the body of the other question and the answers also focus on the reference over personal relationships. | |
| Apr 15, 2013 at 15:31 | comment | added | IDrinkandIKnowThings | @PDR - I do not think so. I do not think the OP is so much worried about having a good relationship so much as not having a bad reference. The question is more focused on the best way to extract himself from the situation. I actually considered redacting that whole line but thought it had some more information that might be useful to someone crafting a well balanced answer. | |

| Apr 15, 2013 at 15:07 | comment | added | IDrinkandIKnowThings | I have updated the question to focus on the best course for leaving the company. I think the scenerio is common enough that the solution can be applied to other similar scenerios. I focused on how to leave because the OP indicated that was his intention, and removed the nonconstructive parts and some details that made it to localized. | |

Edited the question to focus on the OP's question and bring it back to cconstructive

| Apr 15, 2013 at 13:44 | comment | added | IDrinkandIKnowThings | You have listed out a few warning signs of a company that is having financial problems. Doing things that prevent people from leaving with out a severe expense on their part, withholding money owed, cost cutting measures that appear to go overboard. There is going to be nothing left to sue in a few months so a few changes that break the law are irrelevant. This is probably one of the few times I agree that the solution is quit. | |
| Apr 15, 2013 at 13:06 | comment | added | pdr | The middle part of the question is still "should I quit?" or "should I quit now, so that I can look for a job in two months, when my notice period is mostly run down?" The first is specifically off-topic as career advice; the second requires some legal knowledge of whether you are bound by the new contract. "How can I leave without causing ill-feeling" is on-topic, but I'm fairly sure it's been asked before. | |

| Apr 15, 2013 at 11:34 | comment | added | pdr | Sorry, we can't tell you what's right for you in this kind of circumstance (it may be that you're certain you can get another job in days; or it may be that it's very unlikely), and we can't give you legal advice. You should check with your local authorities or a lawyer and ask them if a company can change your contract without your signing the new one. (Assuming you haven't signed it; if you have then you are probably bound by it.) | |
