Advice Needed:

I’m on a two-week PTO and recently accepted a new role starting Sept 22. I’ve been with my current company for about six months and was just staffed as a lead on one client project plus a few smaller initiatives. I want to resign but I’m unsure about timing: is it better to submit notice during PTO (so they have the full two weeks to plan coverage) or wait until I return (to ensure I’m paid through PTO in case they decide to end employment immediately)?

So what was the reason for the quick job change?

Then, in the worst-case scenario, you'd still change jobs anyway and be happy. So do the right thing and hope for the best.

Congrats!

Unless you have unlimited PTO, even if they fire you immediately, they will have to pay out all your accrued PTO. So it will basically be the same.

Yeah you’re right. I don’t want to burn a bridge and will let them know

A quick note about what I’ve experienced, in my decade long career, is the real advantage of MBB or FAANG - it gives you a shot at stretch roles that are outside your expertise. Not all the time or even most of the time compared to better candidates with specific experience for the role but gives you this wildcard shot at a vast array of opportunities.

https://ergochair.co/collections/chairs/products/ergonomics-mesh-chair-w-adjustable-headrest-and-armrest?variant=32511617597491

My criteria: mesh seat and back, arms, headrest

I tried cheap ones from Amazon. Expensive, second hand gaming chairs. Tried HM Aeron (second hand) and while I didn't like the bulk and the general design, I was sold on the mesh seating. I wanted to get the ErgoChair 2 from autonomous, but it doesn't have mesh seat.
