I had a performance review with my supervisor in early June and was recommended to a senior position and a salary adjustment. All was fine and dandy but August is coming up and my contract is ending soon. Contacted HR a couple of times to ask for progress but was denied and they were ‘too busy’. Didn’t take long for me to start applying elsewhere and thankfully, my former colleague had a job opening in his place and I was offered the job after going through formalities. When I dropped the bomb a few days ago, HR came guns blazing and always remarked that I was an ‘asset’ to the company. They asked for a number but I refused to give and would like to see what they have to offer. End up offered me a half bake reactive, by name only senior position offer with less pay from new job. Decided not to renew and I was able to take enough leave to make the next day as my last and they still have to compensate for the unutilised leave that I have accumulated through the year. Jokes on them for dragging it for far too long
