What Happens to Your Pluxee Card Balance When You Leave a Company?

What Happens to Your Pluxee Card Balance When You Leave a Company? What happens when you leave a company but still have an amount left on your Pluxee card? Will it be cancelled, expire, or be taken back by Pluxee? No! Your card may remain active until its expiry date. For example, my Pluxee card is valid until 2028, and I have a balance of ₹12,000+. I was also curious about what would happen to my Pluxee card. Would the balance lapse, or how would it work? I asked HR, and they said that my card would remain active until its expiry date and that I could use the balance anytime. My Experience with Pluxee After Leaving the Company. My card balance: I had more than ₹12,000 remaining on my Pluxee card. My last working month: I left the company in August 2026. My card validity: My Pluxee card is valid until 2028. Confirmation from HR: HR told me that my card would remain active until its expiry date and that I could continue using the balance. My personal test: On 24 October 2026, I vis...

My Manager Wanted Me to Stay. I Didn't Know What to Say.

Was It Just Me, or Does Everyone Do the Same Thing? When I was working at one of the companies, I received an offer from another company, but I actually wanted to be retained because I liked the work timings and the culture was good. It wasn't always about money. It was also about comfort, work, culture, and the attachments you build over the years. So, when I resigned, HR called me and asked, "What can we do to have you back?" At that moment, I went blank. I said I didn't have any issues staying back and continuing to work, but at that moment, I didn't have any number to tell them. I even said I wouldn't stay back if they matched the same offer. But what I actually meant was that if they offered something extra, I would stay. HR didn't understand me. After some time, my manager also called and asked the same question: "What can we do to have you back?" Even at that moment, I went blank and said I didn't have any number to tell him. My manage...

50 Days Served. Still Unemployed.

I Loved My Job. Until One Day, I Didn’t Have One. 💔 A story about loyalty, assumptions, corporate life, and the price of always saying YES. Let me ask you something. How many of you genuinely love the job you do? Not I tolerate it because I need the salary. Not Monday to Friday and then I can finally breathe. Not I’ll stay until I find something better. I mean… How many of you actually LOVE what you do? ❤️ I used to. I genuinely loved my job. I loved the people. I loved solving problems. I loved those endless email chains where I would explain something again and again until someone finally said, Okay, now I understand. And honestly? I loved being able to say: Yes, I’m working on it. Yes, I’ll take care of it. Yes, you can depend on me. That word — YES — became a huge part of my professional identity. And I didn't know then that saying YES to everything could eventually teach me one of the hardest lessons of my career. 🏢 Four+ Years. One Company. One Routine...

I Had a Job Offer. I Resigned. I Served My Notice Period. And Still Became Unemployed.

I Had a Job Offer. I Resigned. I Served My Notice Period. And I Still Ended Up Unemployed. I cleared the interviews, negotiated the salary, completed BGV, waited nearly two months for the offer, resigned from my job—and then my new employer told me they had moved on because I couldn't join within 30 days. Here's what happened, where I went wrong, and what I learned the hard way. I never thought a job switch could go this wrong. I had an offer. I had accepted it. I had resigned from my existing company. I was serving my 60-day notice period. And then, after almost completing that notice period, I found out that the new company had moved ahead with someone else. I was suddenly unemployed. Looking back, I made mistakes. But there were also several points during the hiring process where communication was unclear, HR went silent for weeks, and important conversations happened over phone calls instead of email. This isn't a story about saying one company was completely right and ...
