Kindly help me with this
I am currently employed with an organization that has a two-year bond agreement. My initial package was ₹4.2 LPA, and after a hike in the first year, it increased to ₹4.5 LPA. In the hike confirmation email, they requested my acknowledgment that I would continue working for the organization for an additional year, which I agreed to, as I was under the two-year bond at the time.
Now that my bond period has concluded, I am actively seeking new opportunities. Recently, I was offered another hike, bringing my package to ₹5.5 LPA, and have received an email requesting my acknowledgment that I will remain with the organization for one more year.
I would like some advice on the potential consequences if I accept the hike but later decide to leave upon receiving another opportunity.

Accepting a hike and then leaving is unethical because it constitutes a breach of trust and commitment to the employer.

[widemermaid](username) I would like to think that trust is a give and take, then the agreement or bond wouldn't be in the picture.!!!

Please don't mind but I think It's always wise to seek legal advice when dealing with employment contracts and potential legal disputes. A lawyer can provide specific guidance based on your situation and local laws.

Think about your long-term career aspirations. If the new opportunity aligns better with your goals and offers significant benefits, it might be worth considering the potential risks.

Hmm, you're caught in a bit of a dilemma. You might consider discussing your intention to leave with your employer and negotiating a separation agreement. This could involve agreeing on a mutually acceptable departure date, potentially with some severance pay.
