Just say what a tough decision it’s been, you’ve loved your time here but this is an exciting opportunity you can’t pass up. Depending on what level you are, some constructive feedback may be appropriate but not required. Sometimes people like the more direct input of people on the way out rather than the faux happiness of someone trying to get promoted.

Should prepare for? I want to leave the best impression possible as I want to have the option of returning to EY in case I want to come back to consulting. For context, I am leaving for a start up opening its first office in my state.

Does the notice period start when the partner first learns about it?

It starts when you give your resignation notice as you can mention it in the email.
Better discuss your end date with your engagement manager/manager on the project as they willl be directly impacted.

OP are planning to tell whom you are leaving the firm for . I want to know how to evade that question without offending anyone when I have the talk next montg

One of my direct reports has asked about going part time. They currently manage special reports in a bi-weekly publication, working closely with sales, freelance writers, and an internal designer. Job duties are primarily project management and editing/proofreading. As the first read on articles, they need to have an understanding of the material (business/regulation). Has anyone had experience with job sharing in this type of a role?
