Hi Blinders,

I resigned from Amazon 3 weeks ago and only 1 week is remaining for the last date I gave (I had 1 month notice period), and my exit process hasn't started, apparently manager has to approve, but he is not approving and asking me to complete a task, which I am trying my best to complete, but since only 1 week is there, I am scared. I have committed the date to my next company and I don't want to change it.

I pinged HR, but they say, manager has to approve for the process to start.

What to do ?

TC: 24 LPA

    Your manager should not be able to block your resignation.
    When you resigned, did you send a formal email to him saying that you had decided to leave and your last working date ? Was there some portal where you entered your resignation details ?

      Yes I did both, but as per HR, the first step in exit process is manager approval, without that they won't relieve me officially.

      Then HR cannot refuse to let you go on the last date. Just add your skip level manager and HR contact and say that you will be leaving as per the original date regardless of whether your manager approves it or not.

    Mail your manager with the skip and hr in cc. Try to include proof indicating that you had communicated the decision to resign prior to doing so.
    And then walk away on the last day - simppe as that.

      I won't get a relieving letter perhaps and I will not be officially relieved. Not sure about the consequences, if the next company asks for relieving letter

      For your next company just say that you have received your relieving letter yet and share your resignation email for temporary proof. This had worked for me. Also forward your resignation email to your personal mail id so that you have a personal copy.

    Isn't more like a slavery? Just let him know that you have resigned and your last working day will be 00/00/0000 (fill in the gaps) and cc HR. Employment is at will and forced. Let your manager know and walk off
