Background – my employment contract (Canada) wants 12 weeks notice (no penalty listed but maybe they didn’t need to. And could still sue?). New job 7 weeks away. Bonus payment is 5 weeks away and is about $5000. Contract states no bonus if notice given before date of payment.
These are my options:
-
Give 7 weeks notice and hope all fine. No bonus and not 12 weeks notice.
-
Give 2 weeks notice after I receive my bonus and hope all is fine. Not 12 weeks notice.
-
Give 12 weeks notice and be Mia for the last 5 weeks (maybe ask to not be paid for those weeks) as new job starts in 7 weeks. No bonus.
None of these are pleasant lol. But they are my options. I am taking the new job it is better.
Edit: added info re suing?
