Ex-Employee Seeks Legal Advice on Reddit Over Buyback Policy and Withheld Experience Certificates
In this post on Reddit, he wrote that “I need your suggestion as to what legal recourse should I take. They never mentioned anything as such while I joined this organisation 1.2 years back. They issued a circular 5-6 months back stating the term and condition of the buy back. They are forcing employees left right and centre to buy the laptop they gave us to do company work, and if you deny, they refrain from giving one his experience certificate too.”
He further added that “Need help as to what actions can I take to overcome this situation; I am planning to leave the organisation in a few months”.
When the company was reached out to comment on the same, the company declined to comment on the same.
