A 28-year-old graduate from the Indian Institute of Management (IIM) has resigned from a position with a salary package of ₹37 lakh per annum without having another job lined up. The professional cited dissatisfaction with the work itself and the senior management as primary reasons for his departure from a technology startup where he had worked for six months.

He shared his situation on Reddit’s r/IndiaCareers community, indicating he has enough savings to cover living expenses for approximately six months. This financial cushion has led him to consider taking a career break of four to five months before seeking new employment, even if it means accepting a lower salary for a more suitable role.

The graduate is seeking advice from individuals with similar career transition experiences, particularly those with MBA qualifications. His post has sparked a debate among Reddit users, with some advising him to start applying for jobs immediately due to market uncertainty and competition, while others suggest taking time off to reassess his career path.
