Hi, I am Manu, working for Accenture in Bangalore. It's been more than two years in the same organization. Recently, I received an offer from a very good company, but they are asking me to join within 40 days. However, in my current company, the notice period is 90 days. I submitted my exit request for 35 days, which is 55 days less than my notice period. I managed to convince my supervisor, DU lead, and Project HR Rep. They all approved my early release. Unfortunately, the last approval from the case manager (a kind of HR personnel) was rejected, stating that the company policy requires serving the full 90 days. I made every effort to persuade her, but she did not agree. There is no project dependency on me, and I explained this as well. I am willing to go for a notice period buyout. Even my terms of employment clause states: "You may, at any time, terminate your employment by giving the Company ninety (90) calendar days prior written notice. Upon providing such notice, approval of any request for early release and/or any waiver will be granted at the sole discretion of the Company, subject to its terms and conditions, including but not limited to recovery in lieu of the unserved notice period." I am unsure how to proceed in this situation. Kindly suggest on this.
Regards, Manu
