I did ask them. They aaid they do not enforce any of these things.
When I asked them to change the contract so they are not enforceable they refused.
They refused any changes to the contract at all.
You're fair to ask but its also fine for them not to change. You could trust them and see if they hold their word that they're not enforced. TBH those things just sound like legalese to protect their ass.
Just like you won't perfectly hold your end of the contract, they won't enforce theirs.
Eh?
This is the opposite of good advice. “You could just trust them” on signing a legal contract with extreme differences between the stated terms and the written terms? Would you do the same for a divorce?
Just quit and you're back where you started.
It depends on the country and what’s in the contract. You could be very behind where you started in specific scenarios.
Germany
So a country where you have to provide written notice of quitting, with a notice period of potentially months?
Yeah, a lot of companies will let you quit sooner, could even be in that contract for all we know, but you’ve signed a legal document. It’s not as simple as “just quit”.
Why are you defending scummy business practices? Are they paying you? Do you like it when shittu businesses do shitty things to normal people? Then why the fuck are you defending them?
Stop normalizing shitty behavior and instead be a part of the solution.
The remote advertising thing sure that's poor but what else is shitty exactly? Not changing a contract?
You can be idealist and complain, that's good, but might just need to wait a while to find what you want.
Unpaid overtime and forced relocation are also pretty Terrible...
