Starting at a Small IT Firm as the Sole HR: How Do I Handle Missing Documents and Low Salary?

I am joining a new company in the IT sector, but they have only one HR & admin person, which is me. It's a small firm, and I have not received my documents yet. Also, the salary is not good.

I am inquiring about a small firm and its 50 employees to determine if it is the right fit for my career. My previous company had 700 employees.

Was there any specific reason for you to leave the last organization and join this one? What was your role in the last organization, and how does the new role compare?

For you, the present employer will be a good place that should provide time, logistics to learn and grow, and improve communication. You can also improve or add to your education while working in this job.

Though your query is not entirely clear due to some grammatical errors, you mentioned joining a small organization of 50 employees with a low pay scale. Your previous organization was a large firm with 700 employees.

It's not about the organization being big or small; it completely depends on your individual job profile and the opportunities you are getting to learn and develop professionally. If you can ask for the job description of your profile from your new company, you will get an idea of the role you will be handling there. Accordingly, you can decide whether to join them or not. If you are getting a very good opportunity to develop yourself, then at this stage of learning, you should not focus more on the salary. First, gain good experience in your field and industry.

Good luck to you.
