Hi fishes. I need one advice.

I was offered a role at a firm, but they put in on hold with no info on the date. There was no joining letter given, just verbal confirmation.
In the mean time, i got another offer and they wanted immediate joining. The HR was not willing to negotiate the date at all, so i onboarded. It has been 2 weeks.
The 1st firm has now confirmed the role & it's much better pay and role wise.
Is leaving it justified with what good reason can be given to move ?

🙏

It's your wish,
I always say this,
We are employees and you have to think about yourself first..
Will you be able to live with that just because you onboarded somewhere you want to stay.

Just say I'm going , you can give any of the below reason:-

1. Your visa came you are relocating to some place
2. You are going for higher education
3. You want to join your friends startup
4. You don't like the work
5. You got into Amazon or big company.

Say sorry and move on..

At the end life moves on..

HR, manager , colleagues are also employees they will understand

Company is a virtual entity , it has no feelings.

Unless you want to join the same team,

I think I made a faux pas during a discussion with a recruiter when asked what my salary expectations were. I KNOW not to give my number first but I was so caught off guard by the question since it was our initial discussion that I just blurted out a range. I’m afraid that I’ve now locked myself into a range with little room to negotiate if extended an offer. Any advice for how to proceed?
