EY policy states that no vacation is allowed during the two-week notice period. If you are submitting your notice but have pre-planned time off that you can’t get out of, what would happen?

In my opinion, better to ask forgiveness than permission. I’m quitting myself on Feb 2nd, but will give my employer 3 weeks and have 3 PTO days I will be taking no matter what... if they call me out, I’ll say I’m sorry - but in my experience, once people are on their way out, they’re basically out and have a lot of leeway...

Lots of non answers here so let me add a real response: you should tell them you're going to stay on 10 working days, ie the full 2 weeks they expect. In your scenario that means your last day would be 2 days later than you originally planned. They probably will just shrug and let you make your true last day the Fri before that but the courtesy of giving enough time to transition the work matters.

If you live in an at-will state, you don’t need to give them 2 weeks - it’s a professional courtesy, but if you think they’ll give you shit for taking PTO, don’t let them know you’re leaving until after you take it...

They will frown upon it greatly and it won’t reflect well on your integrity. A full 2 weeks is bare minimum.

I live in an at-will state, it don’t want to burn any bridges at all - so definitely going to give a two week notice. I guess my main question is: what, if anything, would they say when I submit my two-weeks but also say I’ll be off these two days during my two-week notice period?

Op- the scenario you described doesn’t seem like any notice to me. Two weeks notice is to allow you to wind down what you’re doing and train your replacement

Op my bad. I read it as you were taking the full two weeks off. Your scenario doesn’t seem terrible anymore

The universe will disappear. However, your vacation time will remain intact

EY2 no worries! I just have two days planned during the time and want to make sure it won’t be a huge issue

KPMG1 interesting thought!

I took vacation during my 2 week notice and it was fine. I think the policy means you can’t say I’m leaving tomorrow but I have 2 weeks of vacation left so I’ll use that as my notice period. It’s terribly written and I had the same exact concern but was no problem at all, I even told the people consultant and they didn’t seem phased. Just make sure the vacation isn’t your last day and you should be good!

They don’t even provide a computer or any other remote equipment for the completely remote position. Am I making a mistake? Also, can anyone chime in about being a 1099 employee?
