New Employee Quits Six Hours Into Job After Training Reveals Role Details
A new employee resigned just six hours into a job after learning the full scope of responsibilities during training, which differed from the initial job description. The departing colleague, who had already resigned, was asked to hire and train a replacement before leaving. The new hire was given an honest overview of the role, including workload and company policies, but chose to quit by the end of the day, leaving the manager frustrated. The incident was shared by Harshit Srivastava, founder of Hiring Insider, on LinkedIn.
