Hi, Previously, I was working in an MNC and joined another company on a contract basis. I resigned from this company on short notice and joined a different one. The reasons for resigning are as follows:
1. They committed to providing compensation like a shift allowance, but later refused to pay.
2. They told me I would get a CAB facility, but I didn't receive it. Then they committed to paying 4k as compensation, which I haven't received.
3. They clearly told me before joining that I would work for 5 days, but now I'm forced to work 6 days: 3 days in the morning and 3 days at night. I use the weekend to sleep because of the night shift, so virtually, I don't have a day off.
4. They also committed to paying my salary for the bench period, which I haven't received.
5. On the first day on the client side, I got to know about all the above issues (6-day working, 3 morning and 3 night shifts, and the cab facility). I told my manager that I wasn't informed about these. He sent me back from the company three times and told me to ask my company.
6. I have my family dependent on me, so at that moment, I had to sacrifice these things (6-day working and shift) since my manager was not accepting me. I tried to reach my company, but they didn't receive my call (this was on a Friday). Then I dropped a mail and didn't get any response until Monday. My manager told me not to come to the office from Monday. Anyway, I went there on Monday and convinced him.
7. On Monday, I tried to contact them again, but after a lot of effort, they picked up the call.
8. In that project, there is huge work pressure because of the live system, and I am not getting any proper week offs.
9. Now, I asked for my compensation. First, I called many times as they were not receiving calls. Then I dropped a message, but they ignored it. Then I sent a one-to-one mail. Even that didn't work, so I kept some seniors in CC and sent them reminders as well.
I tried this for 2 months, then realized they just bluffed me. Their behavior is very arrogant. I felt there is neither job security nor mental peace. In between, I got an option. I tried the final option of my resignation and tried to negotiate with them. They simply told me they are not going to retain me. My manager suggested that I better look for another option because joining the next company is very close. I gave a 6-day notice period. In my resignation mail, I mentioned my last working day. On the first day of resignation, I got a formal call from them, which I eventually missed. Further, I haven't received any call or mail from them.
Since in the next company I haven't shown that experience, they are not asking for a relieving letter. They (the contact company) haven't cared for all this for at least 2 months. Somehow, they found out where I am working.
Now they sent a mail to my manager stating that I am an absconding employee. I explained everything to my manager. My manager took the initiative and requested them to settle the issue. My previous manager also requested them to settle the issue by buying out the notice period. I personally went there to settle the issue, but they didn't listen. Now they have escalated the issue to the company HR. I tried my best to settle this issue, but they are not listening. My current company told me that they are their business partner. I will definitely lose my job.
I have those mails and messages. Please suggest what I should do as they are taking revenge.

It seems that you are not very well aware of the corporate culture and business environment. Having only skill is not the talent you have in your core profession, but being able to handle and sustain various situations around you would make you a successful and proactive employee. Leave aside everything and be so self-contained that the industry should look out for you, not you hunt for the job. Your simple solution would be to assess yourself, identify where you have gone wrong, and learn from your previous experiences. Move ahead with a more accurate aim, plans, and strategies to prove your self-worth to corporates.
And the last advice is that if you truly have the evidence for fighting against management, you can go legal. But be sure that you are ready to sustain the most adverse situations.
Please do not blame systems. Try to be a part of the system, and you will be accepted everywhere. Also, remember that change management is a very complicated process. So ensure that it will take a lot of time for people to understand the need for change.
Hope this gives you an idea of what you should do.
Thanks,
