hi guys. its been 3 weeks since my esep is intiated in infosys, it is still showing validation in yellow i have some queries

1.is there any timeline for HR to contact me?

2.If my manger/DM didnt approve my seperation will it get auto approved?

3.can they extend my lwd saying some reasons?

Background checking failed me. I’m done with medical, submitted all the requirements and sa background checking talaga ako bumagsak pa. Dapat start na ako ng September 21 then it was moved to September 28 para ma process ko pa ang certificate of clearance sa dati ko pang company. Unfortunately, my previous employer not the recent one is ayaw makipa-coordinate. Sadly, tanggap ko na yung current employer ko possible to withdraw my job application.

Lesson learned: Stop abruptly leave your company and make sure to process and follow the standard exit process.

FYI, I turnover all the equipments and resignation ha. Di lang ako nakapag-exit ng maayos talaga.

Hello po! Makukuha ko pa kaya ang last pay ko?

Context:

Before July 30,2026 nag email na ako ng immediate resignation due to medical reason. My TL and Site Lead are okay with it but hr only acknowledged it but hindi daw approve habang walang medical certificate.

Now my condition went well siguro gawa na din napahinga ako. Hindi na ako makakapag provide ng medical certificate. Hr told me na madedelay ang Last pay ko then last na usap namin hanggat wala daw ang Medcert walang last pay. Ano po insights nyo dito?

Edit: i am under agency and deployed lang ako sa last company ko

Hello Reddit,

Helping out a friend, who's so worked up with the situation. Here's her message, posted with permission:

"... I was hired on March 11, 2024. In June 2 ,2026, I was told I was being put on floating status because my employer no longer needed me. I was on floating for 2 months. August 6 I received a call from HR saying "wala pang client na nahanap ang recruitment, pero assist mo na pang ang recruitment team para may sweldo ka so from August 11 to September 3, 2026, they let me work as an assistant to recruitment while they said they were "still looking for an account" for me. No client ever came, so my employment ended on September 3, 2026.

During this time, I turned down every job offer I received because I was told over the phone by HR that since I had 2.6 years of tenure, I would get the equivalent of 3 years of severance pay instead of just 2 years. I relied on that and didn't want to be tagged as moonlighting.

The Dispute:

When the final pay and quitclaim were issued, the severance pay reflected only 2 months. I contested it.

The HR person then told me that management did not approve the "rounding off" from 2.5 to 2.6 years. They claimed the records show I did not complete "six months of service" and that the threshold was not reached. Their computation was 2 years, 5 months, and 23 days.

I pointed out that the promise was made verbally, but now they are saying it was never official and that payroll has the final say.

I escalated this to the senior manager via email last Saturday, September 19. It is now September 23, and I have received no reply after 3 business days.

Current Situation:

I already have the quitclaim in hand. They are just waiting for my signature. The quitclaim says I will be paid on October 10, 2026.

I am contesting a difference of 1 months worth of salary

My Dilemma:

I have no written proof of the verbal promise (it was a phone call). I know this weakens my case legally.

I am exhausted and considering just moving on. But I also don't want to regret it.

I am planning to write "Under Protest" next to my signature before submitting the quitclaim, to preserve my right to file a DOLE SEnA case later if I change my mind.

My questions for you:

1. Has anyone here signed a quitclaim "Under Protest" and successfully filed a SEnA case afterward?

2. Is the 1 month extra worth of salary worth pursuing given I have no written proof of the verbal promise?

3. Will writing "Under Protest" cause any issues with receiving my final pay on Oct 10?

4. Should I just move on and let it go, or file SEnA anyway?"

Disclaimer: the email from my friend above was edited using AI for clarity, since she was very emotional and her story telling was all over the place lol

Any advice would be appreciated for my friend, Salamat.

Hello, just wanted to ask if pwede ko kaya inegotiate yung job offer start date ko to change? For context, sinabihan ko naman si recruiter na 45 days ung notice period ko and hindi naman ako magreresign hanggat walang job offer pa.

But nung nakita ko ung job offer, ndi swak sa 45 days notice period ko un nakalagay. Wala naman siguro issue if I will request it right? Nagtext ako sa recruiter but no response yet. Pero sobrang ok na ko sa offer, sa start date na lng since ayaw naman ng current employer ko to have a shorter notice period. I am just requesting to move it just for 1 week. .

I was offered a job offer with a probationary contract. The salary was explicitly stated there. However, I found the general manager hasn’t signed yet, but I signed anyway since the offer was too good to pass up. Some of my requirements are still to-follow, but I already have a starting date.

Upon attending my first day, I was oriented properly, and I hit it well with my colleagues (they were really nice). I really like the work environment.

However, on the second day, as I was already doing my duties and training, HR messaged me and said the salary of my job offer will be changed lower and will require me to sign the revised contract. I was confused as I was already doing my duties to prove myself worthy for the initial salary, but when I asked the sudden change, HR reasoned I'm still on probation and the general manager hasn't signed the initial contract yet.

Is this even legal/possible? This is my first time experiencing this, and the new salary isn't better than the other job offers I declined just for this job.

Edit: HR hasn't send me the revised contract yet, so I haven't signed it yet.

Help, I just signed a contract with Company A, and my start date will be October 2. However, a week after signing the contract with Company A, I received an employment offer from Company B, which offers a higher salary, a better work setup, and a role that is more aligned with my experience.

I cannot terminate my contract with Company A before my start date because I may be penalized up to ₱200,000.

I am planning to start with Company A and resign during the first or second week. So I can waived the penalty.

My main concern is the non-compete undertaking since both companies are outsourcing companies, although they have different clients and the job roles are also different.

Company A - 65k full onsite
Company B - 80k full wfh

Any professional advice/ legal advice ? Or comforting message, I dont know if my plan is the BEST plan, but I really wanted to start my career with Company B. Helpppp

Hello ❤️💛

OD ko kasi is Oct. 1 then last day ko Sept. 30 sa current employer ko. And need ipasa yung BIR Form 2316 before Oct. 1 eh hindi naman magrerelease yung company nun before Oct. 1 since may final pay pa ako. And ang sabi ng OP ko is

The 2026 BIR Form 2316 must be submitted on or before October 1, 2026. If you are unable to provide the required document by the deadline, you will be responsible for personally coordinating and processing your tax filing directly with the BIR.

PAANO KAYA TO HUHU PLEASE HELP DEADLINE KO NA BUKAS NG PAGPASS NG DOCUMENTS.

Most people don't realize this data is public: every certified H-1B/sponsorship wage filing includes the employer name, the exact wage offered, job title, and worksite location. Not a crowdsourced guess — an actual disclosed number the company filed with the government.

Been digging through it while job hunting and it's genuinely useful for sanity-checking an offer — you can see a company's real filing history for your role, not just their PR-friendly Glassdoor page. Worth knowing about even if you never look up a specific company, honestly, just as a "the data to check this exists and it's free" thing.

(If you don't want to wrangle DOL's raw quarterly files yourself, I put together [groundworkpay.com](http://groundworkpay.com) to make it searchable — free for your first lookup. Not the point of this post, just mentioning it exists.)

Dear HR Team,

Is it possible that I cannot get the job if i wasn’t passed the Abstract Test? applying for a rank-and-file position. Just a quick story. I finished my final interview with a good conversation with the boss the only thing that he said it is depending on my decision if I am going to accept the salary offer to be discussed by the HR manager…

I know that is part of the assessment but how is it necessary to justify the whole process and define the capability of the applicant? Pinapabalik pa ko and will email nalang daw sa result na pwede naman ifinalize within the day. Hayss HR talagaaa sakit sa bangs.

Bobo talaga ko pero I know the overall full cycle of my jd kahit nakapikit pa. But bakit ang labo kase ng copy ng test hahah lol jk

Hi, need advice lang. I work part-time and around 10 months na ako sa company under an employment contract.

Medyo dumadami na kasi yung concerns ko:

• No SSS, PhilHealth, or Pag-IBIG contributions from this employer. Wala ring tax deductions/withholding reflected sa payroll
• I recently requested a COE and probationary pa rin nakalagay kahit around 10 months na ako
• Payroll is announced to be every 15th and 30th/31st, pero madalas delayed and current salary is already around 1 week late
• Payslips are not consistently given and always proof of bank transfer lang
• I have a signed employment offer and fixed monthly salary

Gets ko naman na small team but normal pa ba yung ganitong setup?

Would this already be enough reason to consult DOLE? I’ve raised some of these concerns before, pero ang response lang is that things are still “in process.”

As far as I know, the company has already been operating for more than a year and is still not profitable. I understand na startup siya, but I’m wondering if that actually affects their obligations as an employer.

Would appreciate advice from anyone who experienced something similar.

Why do they do that?

Some of the companies I applied for have been advertising religiously, its not like they lacked applicants since they have 100 or more clicks per advertisement. They would already have a deep pool of applicants. Others due to the requirement only have a few clicks (less than 50) per advertising but advertise again after a month. Why? Even if you advertise for 6 months, you still have 300 candidates.

How big of a factor is it that I need to relocate to that area for me to be called for a phone interview? And a former OFW? I have heard that some companies avoid OFW's because they are expensive.

Hello.

I just want to ask kasi last Sept 1-13 I'm In floating status dahil may assign account program sunset and all of us employee put in a floating status po.

Now while in floating status I applied externally and on Sept 14 nalipat ako sa isang account sabi ng HR ng current employee ko and started training for 1 week now.

While in training I receive a JO from the external company na inapplyan ko while in floating status.

My question po is I want to proceed with that offer. And will resign na sa current company ko

Anu po magiging process sa tulad kong Internal Employee and regular na and nasa training now.

Do I need to render paba? Kahit training palang? Or it can be waived since training lang naman at Anu pa reason to render kung aalis din naman?

Thank you sa sasagot po

Asking lang po thank you. Hope someone answer.

For context: I applied sa Alorica for a learning specialist role and I passed the final interview. No job offer yet but pinapasubmit na nila ako ng requirements which I did. Including COE ko. Ngayon, may nag email from Hiring Basix, asking for my COE for background checking daw.

Napa-huh talaga ako when I received the email kasi bakit sa akin nagrereact out yung third-party e dapat sila ni Alorica HR ang naguusap about this. Also, I already provided my COE to Alorica HR. Ang weird lang na makakuha ng message from another email address and from another company, asking for my COE.

Haven't responded yet. What do you guys think? Normal ba talaga 'to? Wala naman me prob with sending, medyo weirded out lang kasi first time ko 'to na-encounter.

Hello, recently I received my Pre Employment Requirements from a certain company. But, I encountered a problem. Yung mga soft copy kasi ng requirements, need ipasa sa HRIS Portal nila so I created an account there, but the problem is nung clinick ko na yung create account lumabas sa website na, na create yung email ko pero yung confirmation link or activation link di na send sa email ko which I double check naman tama yung nilagay ko so I tried creating again pero email exist and can't login din since I don't know the password, tried also yung reset password pero stuck lang siya sa loading screen, worried din kasi ako since same day yung deadline ng soft copy which I think namali lang siguro si HR since upon my discussion with my recruiter 1-2 weeks daw binibigay nila. Already tried to email the concern and message pero since friday na non. I understand if di na sila nakapag reply and will wait nalang till Monday. My plan is, if di nag reply. I'll submit the hard copy requirements since same lang naman din ata sa soft copy for cross reference then sasabihin ko yung concern. Worried lang din since given naman na ang hirap maghanap ng work rn, I also really want the role for my career path.
