Hi, I joined a small company in November 2013 as a software engineer. The offer letter they provided does not include details such as:
1) Probation period.
2) Notice period.
3) They only mentioned my salary per annum but did not specify the basic salary, gross salary, etc.
We do not have an HR department in our company. Additionally, my manager has not set up a salary account, doesn't provide payslips or an identity card, and does not pay salaries on time.
Now, if I want to resign from the current company, what are the best ways to do so? I am asking because my manager is assigning me tasks unrelated to my job, such as paying bills. I am extremely frustrated with this situation. Please suggest some ways for me to resign properly and find a better job.
Thanks in advance.

Dear Mr. Pavan,
I presume that you are a youngster and this is your first or second job. If it is so, I would suggest that you try to learn to cope with such situations and not switch jobs immediately. Organizations are not a 'bed of roses' anymore. But at the same time, politely discuss with your manager that your earnest expectations are a clear job description, pay slip, ID card, etc. If things do not work out, then you may decide otherwise. However, you should plan for a 'graceful departure'.

Dear Pavan,
Wait for some more time. If things do not improve, then you can search for another job. Until and unless you have an alternate job in hand, it is not advisable to resign from your current job and start searching or hunting for a new job. There will be more weightage in searching for jobs while you are still employed so that you can negotiate; otherwise, it will be difficult for you to negotiate.

Dear Pavan,
I think after almost 1 year, you are realizing the inadequacies of your career with this company. Going by your description, I don't hope things will improve dramatically in the immediate near future. I do believe the best option available to you is to look for a better job in a better organization as early as possible and quit by giving at least one month's notice. I think you are also in the same state of mind; otherwise, you wouldn't have raised this query here. And don't worry about a relieving letter or experience certificate, et al. After all, you can't afford to include in your CV whatever you were doing like electricity bill remitting and such things. And most importantly, try to improve your competitive know-how, which is the only thing that is going to take you places and help you in the future, and none else.
Please let me know if you have any further questions.
Best regards,

All is in your hands. Either bear your employer or just leave the organization.
At the end of the month, what matters is... salary.
So, try to be polite and digest the facts that every organization pays only when they have work. Don't take it too personally to your heart about paying the electricity bill. Just take it light. It's just a matter of 5 minutes. I agree... Why should you pay? Leave that part from your end.
Just feel that you are helping your company by spending 1 hour of your time paying the electricity bill (because your company didn't lay you off due to no work, they are still keeping you and giving you the salaries).
Just think of many companies. Due to no reasons, they are laying off! Just because of no projects or cost-cutting!
Always, you have another option. Update your resume, tell the facts that you don't have an offer letter, pay slip, ID card, etc. Some organizations trust this and digest the fact. But overall, hard work matters!
Daily update your resume. Keep searching for jobs like anything. You will end up with interview calls. And finally, one great day, a good offer rolls out.
Ensure that you are not looking for a great pay (the first priority is to get rid of this job where there are no procedures in place).
Slow and steady wins the race.

It's really shocking to see almost every person say put up with it or quit with the least amount of rubbing. Not one person has been able to tell that it is inappropriate of the organization or try and speak it out. Well, this English maibaap culture is nothing but a social slave mentality. What is this nonsense of your service is one year, or you are helping the company? There is something called dignity of labor; there has to be an organizational ethic and respect for the person and position. It may be okay to be of help but certainly not okay to ignore protocol. I notice gross employment rules violations and poor office documentation procedures. It may sound practical to say put up till you find an alternative, but who is going to bell the cat? It's time you seek time to sit across the table and put your grievances in a polite manner. Tell them where it hurts, then wait for the reply; sure enough, it's going to be dadagiri. Leave the toxic job; you will surely feel better and get a job for your competence.
