    Leave within 3 months and don’t put it on your resume.

    • There is no way for them to check. I think its illegal for them to check your tax records. They can check if you sre wanted for tax related fraud but not which companies you worked and paid taxes for

    • For the record a resume is not expected to be an exhaustive list of everywhere you’ve worked or accomplishments. It’s a selection of them. If I included everything that would be a 5 page resume or longer and no hiring manager will look at that

    What do you mean by option to rehire, at the company you are trying to leave or the company you left to join this one?

      Companies have shorter memories than we imagine, don’t stress out too much if it’s bothering you. Leave if you want to. And even if they retaliate by not screening you in the future - there are thousands of fish in the pond, call it their loss and move on. If you can - try giving a really genuine sounding excuse to do this so they will have some sort of closure.

    Left 2 companies under 6 months. Life is too short to be miserable. There is so many tech companies so I won’t worry.

    Depends on how bad it is. If the job is taking a significant toll on your physical or mental health, leave ASAP.
