Hi,

I have a condition where my notice period is 3 months, and my future company is willing to buy 2 months out of 3, and I just have to serve my current company for 1 month notice period. However, in a talk with my boss, even though my future company is willing to pay for it, it's up for my boss to accept such compensation. Is that mutual agreement, or if I'm willing to pay for it, they have to accept it?

I haven't check with my HR as I would like to talk to my boss first, let her know of my condition. My boss told me that it's up to the department to accept such buyout.

Please advise. Thanks.

Just came back from HR. I have to say that my negotiation with my boss has failed, and I have proceeded the matter to HR. HR enlightened me that "they have no rights to stop you from leaving", so I have submitted another letter in order for HR to come out with the calculation (remaining months to pay etc).

I have to do this as this is the only company that is willing to buy me out, plus they are offering good package. I'm risking my rice bowl if I keep them waiting. Once, I have to be selfish in this matter.
