I signed a contract for a PT offer with Company A about a week ago. The orientation for this position is supposed to be tomorrow afternoon. This morning, I got a call from Company B who offered me a FT position that I did not interview for (I was only interviewing for PT positions at this time). I will be accepting this position, but this means I will have to back out of my contract with Company A.
Due to certain circumstances, Company B may not be able to get me the contract immediately, with the possibility of getting the contract after the orientation day for Company A.
I think I should let Company A know as soon as possible that I will be rescinding my acceptance of their offer, but some people have suggested that I wait to get the contract before letting Company A know. What are your suggestions?

What does the contract say? We can't tell you about legal issues with backing out of the contract since we never read it.

If you have signed a contract, then you have entered into a legally binding agreement with company A. What is the notice period in your contract with them? Is there any chance that a start date with company B would be far enough out that you could give company A sufficient notice under your contract?

Integrity aside, you need to look out for #1 (you)
Also, until you have signed contract , nothing is closed.
But, ultimately, its your decision
