I'm surprised there was no contract signed before relocation. I'm not sure I would relocate internationally without a signed contract. In fact I never remember quitting a job without a signed contract for a new one,but perhaps I was lucky having to deal with pretty good companies.
- lumost 4y agoThe problem here is that the "contract" aka. offer has no penalties for termination. Generally people agree to these terms because they are favorable in other ways such as extra compensation, or simply because they don't perceive the terms as negotiable (probably true). If companies get a reputation for screwing people, then this will change. I once worked at a firm that would obsess over the fine-print of a contract to make sure that we weren't in breach as they messed with their partner. Needless to say, I didn't work at this firm long - and the firm didn't last long. Contracts are only as good as the trust you have in the other party.
