Any tips on quitting without a two week notice?I have never quit a job before. I’m at a 5 person no name shop and I’m currently working on 5 live deals. The new company wants me to start on June 1st. My departure is going to screw over the firm in the short term but I’m also not going to throw away this good opportunity.

Give notice same day and enjoy the vacation. If they had to lay you off or fire you they wouldn’t give you two weeks notice

Curious, how’d it go ?

like

1. Ask for an extension so u can give your 2 weeks which is the norm / expected. They should honor that, and u can let them know u have some ongoing work u need to wrap up.

2. Put in your notice with current bank, they might let u go same day. At my bank (well established) when analysts / associates leave for competitors I’ve seen them finish last day same day they gave notice, maybe for MNPI stuff idk

Give notice ASAP. Do not lie, do not sugarcoat. Try to get accommodation from your new employer.

Besides? the new firm should respect your integrity for notice and responsibly finishing your deals. If not that may be an indication of something else that you should be aware of. It’s also a small industry regardless of shop size so don’t burn bridges. Good luck.

Don’t you have to leave immediately if going to a competitor?

Not going to a competitor and it’s a small shop, no established guidelines or anything.

How did this turn out?
