Is it okay to actually resign if I felt like there is more cons towards my future career?

Question

Would you continue working if you have to incur more cost than what you are paid for? After considering everything, there is more cons than pros and you learnt all this during this two weeks of working. It's nothing like what you are sign up for during interviews? After working here, I realize this place is more suitable for the fresh grads and interns. Nothing much to learn because there is only you. Just a basic skill to acquire. To me it's detrimental to my career in the future. Because I don't have much experience to begin with so this is very important to me.

Accepted Answer

First of all, why did you accept the job offer in the beginning? If it is because you thought that it was a good career move, but you think that you have been duped during the interview, then maybe moving on to a new job is a good choice. But before that, ask yourself whether 2 weeks is sufficient enough for you to assess that the job is just not worth it. Everything takes time, and the worst decision that you can make when deciding to to switch to a new job is rushing to it. You may think that it couldn't be worse than what you have right now, but believe me, it can. Things like that do happen. But it is very fair for you to also take your current financial wellbeing into consideration when deciding to switch job or not after only 2 weeks. This will return you to the previous questions, does 2 weeks is enought for you to accurately assess the worthiness of your current job? Does staying put worth the financial loss that you will incur? The answers lie with you yourself.
