I currently have a Kindle 10th Generation 2019 (J9G29R) - I’m looking to either just buy a new case for it to freshen it up a bit and give it a new look (kindle case recommendations are very welcome! ⭐️)
Or, do I wait and buy a new kindle paperwhite/colour?
I’m currently employed in the UK and have recently been through a workplace investigation relating mainly to performance, workload management and some outstanding administrative work.
There was no dishonesty, falsification of records, safeguarding concern or misconduct involving another person. I explained that I had been struggling with an unmanageable workload, had previously raised concerns and asked for support, and have since completed much of the outstanding work.
I’m still waiting for the formal outcome following a chairperson’s decision which can be anything from PIP, warning to a dismissal. However, regardless of what happens, I have decided that I no longer want to remain with the organisation. I’m considering resigning and working my contractual notice, but I’m worried about how this situation could affect my next role.
I would really appreciate advice from anyone with HR, recruitment or similar personal experience on the following:
Is it generally better to resign before an investigation or disciplinary outcome is confirmed, or wait for the process to conclude?
Can a reference state that an investigation or disciplinary process was ongoing when the employee resigned?
Are most UK employers likely to provide only a factual reference confirming job title and dates of employment?
Is it reasonable to ask HR in writing what information would be included in a future reference before resigning?
How should I explain leaving during interviews without giving unnecessary or damaging detail?
Could a new employer withdraw an offer if a reference mentions performance concerns or an unresolved investigation?
Would it be sensible to provide an additional professional reference from a previous employer or senior colleague?
I’m not looking to conceal anything or mislead a future
employer. I’m trying to understand how to leave professionally, protect my employment prospects and make a fresh start.
I have deliberately kept the details general to avoid identifying my employer, but I’m happy to clarify anything that would not compromise anonymity.
