Can I leave a company after just 3 weeks of joining?

Hi all,

As the title suggests, I want to know if there are consequences associated with quitting a company in just 3 weeks.

I've joined an early stage startup as one of the first few hires in the product team. The pay and work is reasonably okay. WLB is also good. But one of the companies I was interviewing during my NP from called me back, conducted one more interview and now I have a better offer in hand. This new company is a fintech giant and objectively it makes no sense for me leave this offer.

I'm stuck in a situation now where I'm getting super anxious to initiate this conversation with my current manager about leaving in just 3 weeks. Can someone help me with this? Please share your experiences if possible.

Thanks a lot.

Yes if your PF no. is not generated. This ensures that it won’t come up on BGV.

I have already communicated my situation to the fintech company, so BGV shouldn't be an issue I guess. They already know that I'll be leaving this org in such short span.

But what about next firm?

You should definitely leave the current company otherwise you will regret and judge every move you make in this company if it does not fall for you.

Doesn’t matter. Its normal. Just set up a 1:1 with your manager/mentor and say this honestly that you have a better offer and hence you wish to resign. Work on early release.

There are no consequences. Leave, with humility. Give them the respect they deserve. But you should take a better offer

You can - not a big deal. Can’t be in a better position.

Just do your due diligence on both the companies before making that decesion. The reasoning should be beyond compensation.

Talk to the guys in the fintech - build a view on how your potential role can be rewarding and then compare it to the existing one.
