Anyone have tips on quitting during maternity leave/not going back to your job?

I’m on mat leave for my 3rd and we decided to move closer to family (across the country) I’m in house under full RTO so I will have to quit and get a new job. I love my current job but not where we live and have no family here.

How and when did you give notice? I don’t want to give up any of my paid leave so was thinking of letting them know 2 weeks before the mat leave ends…

Your plan is what I’d do, but make sure there’s not a clawback in your leave policy if you don’t return to work for a certain amount of time.

Don’t feel bad about doing what’s best for you and your family 🫶

Would they make an exception? I moved for family reasons and firm accomodated remote work before remote was a thing.

Unfortunately no. It’s a global company and the 5 days in office mandate is global. They laid off all remote employees who couldn’t move to an office location 🙃

So far the only reason I’ve been told no is that “if you do then everyone will want to and then no one will be in the office” … how can I convince them that I work better out of the office and get this freedom & mental break for myself?

I spent the last 3 months "growing up" & now I'm ready to go. 1st thing is for me to get my own place. I'd like to buy instead of rent because I don't want to pay someone else's mortgage.

I'm thinking of selling my car & cash out some of my 401k to buy a house. My thought is to put down 3.5% for a FHA loan then make a big payment towards the principal to reduce long-term interest.

Anything wrong with this thinking or anything else I should consider?
