first job as a fresh grad and i want to resign

hi i need advice :(

i recently accepted an offer and the moment i got in, i felt scammed because it wasn’t everything they told me during the interview phase. i asked why the role was vacant and they told me it was because of a promotion. turns out there were a lot of internal changes happening behind the scenes that i only found out after joining HAHAHA.

so now i’m stuck in this situation where i keep getting passed around to different people, there’s NO structured training at all, and everyone’s just too busy to help me get the hang of things.

i just can’t help but feel like i’m wasting my first few months at a job that’s just milking my energy and potential. i came here because i wanted to be a sponge and learn everything i could so i could really bank on the experience despite the lowballed pay, but instead i mostly feel like i’m figuring everything out on my own.

i was even already handling actual work a week in, but there wasn’t even proper onboarding beforehand, especially on how things work internally. most of what i’ve learned so far has just been through trial and error.

am i demanding? parang hindi naman because i genuinely try my best every day and i don’t mind putting in the work. i’m not even complaining about the workload. it’s more the environment because i feel like i’m not getting the guidance and mentorship i was hoping for. i know life here was supposed to be tough, but i was expecting the kind of environment where i’d actually learn from the people around me.

i want to resign but i’m scared it’ll damage my chances when i apply for a new job, especially since i haven’t even stayed for 6 months. but at the same time, i genuinely don’t see the point of staying if i’m not learning. i don’t plan on including this job in my CV/resume, but i’ve read that hiding it might compromise my next employment somehow.

has anyone been in a similar situation? what did you do? would resigning this early hurt my chances that much?
