Does anyone have suggestions on what to put as the meeting invite subject line and within the body itself when you’re telling your boss you’re quitting your job? Thinking something high level like “Update” but am very open to suggestions!

Touchpoint or FY20 discussion.

That’s how they fire people, so should be appropriate the other way around as well.

In fact, tell them that you’re quitting because the firm’s performance has been comparatively below their peers in industry. Mention the hidden metrics that you pay attention to that are not available to them.

Good question, do you have to schedule a meeting for that? Or could you just call? Or maybe ask on IM when it’s a good time to discuss a personal matter. Some ideas I got, none of them very bright, I know:
One on one
Personal discussion
Meeting (duh- I know)

He/she will know something is up when you keep it vague

Thanks all! This was really helpful. If you have any other tips to help ensure this conversation goes smoothly, please let me know!

Good riddance to bad rubbish

Just got promoted to audit senior, but can’t imagine doing another busy season. I have some forensics internship experience from college and always wanted to pivot to forensics.

If I transfer and have no choice but to work on insurance/claims, would it be better to stay in auditing? Is the insurance/claims work demanding/difficult intellectually wise?
