Signed offer letter & handed in notice, still waiting for contract
Signed Offer Letter, waiting on contract
I recently signed the offer letter for a new job and handed in my notice without the contract.
There was a bit of a stressful situation as when I told them my start date, they were under the impression that I could bring it down a bit cos I said my boss doesn’t always good people to their full notice (which I’ve managed to do).
\\- I was sent the original offer letter, which said I could start July 1st. \\- I said I can’t do that, it’s looking to be July 13th \\- They said “that’s a little later than we were expecting” \\- I cut down to July 7th and they said “that’s perfect” \\- They sent a new offer letter with the updated start date
This happened Friday 5:28pm, and I haven’t had a contract yet.
Be honest, is this normal from a very small team? I’ve had jobs before where I’ve had my contract on Day 1 starting a job.
I’m getting a bit anxious but don’t to seem annoying/nervous, as there were already a few back and fourths.
They’re a nice bunch of people whenever I’ve spoken to them but online they’re pretty poor with comms (they’ve been slow with replying) #business source
