Is there any financial penalties for rejecting a role 1 week after signing the contract? I have an offer from a company and in the process with another and I cannot wait with answering on the offer much longer.

In a similar situation.. hope the answer is No. Have you already rejected it?

There’s a probationary period at the start of every contract in the Netherlands. In that period both parties are allowed to terminate the contract without justification. If you’re still in that period, you should be fine

Not every contract, you're free to leave that out. If you specify a period that is too long the clause is void and there is no trial period either.

Public accounting is a decent spot for me but I’m wanting a more consistent schedule of 40-50 and the self centered/dog eat dog culture of my firm continues to crush my soul more and more the longer I stay.

I have worked as a strategy consultant (& a researcher). Should I change lines? Where else can I try?
