Can you give 2 weeks notice by starting on a Monday and ending the second Friday, or does it have to end on a Monday (i.e. 20th in the scenario below)?

You have no obligation to give any days but to keep good relationships, do about a 1-2 weeks. End it on a Thursday

Exactly. Make it easy on the boss. So many partners are in a golf course on a Friday or just meeting their peers. Plus you get to sleep in on Friday!

You can do whatever you’d like once you clear background check. I’ve given one week notice and have cashed in my PTO for two weeks, vacationed, then started a new job.

You can do whatever you want to do (as long as you don't have an employment agreement).

This. You don’t need any approval for anything, you could quit the same day (for at-will employment contracts)

I know I can quit any day, but I want to give 2 weeks notice and want to make sure this is appropriate

Agree with TPM above. I left consulting recently. Gave the PMDs I worked with 3 weeks notice due to relationship and the the official notice to the firm was 8 business days.

You can leave whenever. Just say “this is my last day”

i’ve done it

How is bdo these days

Yes

Yeah, pretty standard. Try to give notice towards the morning if you can.

I’ve given a notice on Tuesday when Monday was a holiday and my last day was the next Friday

Totally…by 2/14 (on this calendar) you’ll basically be writing good bye emails and browsing reddit all day

Transitioned from my first job (in-house at large tech company) to a boutique firm where "quality" is king. Problem is, every partner/client has their own idea of what "quality" is.

Feeling like I'm starting over brand new, and the stress is really getting to me. Everyone at my old job told me I was at the top quality-wise, but the partners at the firm all tell me it's going to be 2 years before I'm really confident/comfortable. I'm a 6th year. Is this normal? Having bad imposter syndrome.

Concern on going to another FAANG is getting de-leveled/starting over. L5 is nebulous middle management, and it’s easy to get lost in the shuffle.
