Well, under the employment bonds if the company has not incurred any cost upon the employee i.e training then the employee is not bound to houner the bond. You have just worked for 25 days in the company. If you feel that they are not going to provide any training then you can leave the company by proper communication. They may initiate legal proceedings against you for recovery of the bond amount. If they do so then the issue of training shall be the probable defense in your favour.
