But what is there really left to talk about? Think about it logically - you are leaving and you made your mind, unless you want to be talked out of it?... it is not nice to ignore your email. But substantially what is left to discuss is standard stuff like thanks for all your hard work and good luck. I still hope they will respond but don’t be upset or get worked up about it. I am sure you made impact on people who you have worked with on a daily basis and have interacted the most and they will miss definitely miss you. I would focus on their response if I were in your shoes. I wish you nothing but the best in your new journey and your new job 🙏
And I've seen people get talked out of leaving who remained miserable. Don't worry about em. It's not great of them but enjoy the future and add it to the list of reasons you're happy to leave
EY7 - even if I am happy someone is leaving I still try and speak with them over the phone or in person. I do want to understand why they are leaving, where they are going and I do want to wish them well. It is just a level of civility that should happen between professionals.
EY7 - fair point. I agree with that. I think I posted elsewhere that if the partners don’t call or email them back it reflects poorly on the partners not on the person who sent the email letting them know they were quitting.
I wouldn’t even come in to the office at this point. Work remote and give in your laptop last day
Why care that this wouldn’t look good on you? You are a damaged goods to them at this point, and a replaceable one (no offense). I’d just stop showing up.
They’re probably upset that you chose to do this via email without the courtesy of a call or personal discussion.
Nothing wrong with sending an email if the partner isn’t available. That’s what I did, then the partner called me right after.
For some reason when I read the first line I thought this person was talking about their “parents”. LOL
They probably got too many farewell emails and might not even remember who you are.
Who cares. Just leave. Sound like babies who are just frustrated you're leaving and can't talk about it
No one is hanging up on you. Just noting that your experience isn’t the norm.
So you tried to set up some time and they said no?
My team removed me on LinkedIn so people can be childish.
Lmao that is the dumbest thing (on their part) I’ve ever heard. Poor you to not be on their exclusive linkedin connections 😂
That happened to me this summer... I feel your pain. It’s going to be hard for a while, focus on the people who are happy for you, not the ones who are being petty. Sounds like you’re getting out of a toxic situation.
sounds like validation in leaving that team
Different perspective - Op isn’t that good so the partners are not upset about the departure.
This is also possible
Well it doesn’t sound like the partners are unwilling. All you did was send an email and not all partners are responsive to emails. Try speaking to them in person or picking up the phone before jumping to conclusions.
They should be happy you are leaving. Now they will put your salary in their pocket and make everyone else work more.
Sadly this is very true. Everyone is replaceable but no one gets replaced.
No, it’s not normal. Normally they are happy to talk your ear off about why you should stay but can’t give you more money and won’t do anything differently to make you stay.
I’m getting the same shit. Partner is based in another office and HR refused to come in to let me quit in person. Had to Hangouts with HR to give my notice and send the partner an email. Had no other choice. Makes me think my decision to leave was the right one even more than I did before.
I had all sorts of partners/HR/Directors reaching out. Then again I handled it professionally and did it face to face with everyone.
Leaving in December? You're dicking over your whole office so no im not surprised
Lol who cares about the office. Once you leave it's not your problem. These firms have people leave every single busy season, they survive just fine. I've see people leave every month of the year. I've also seen people get laid off during busy season. You dont owe them anything and they dont owe you anything.
In my opinion an email is not a sufficient attempt to get in touch with someone. All PPMDDs have administrative assistants and cell phones.
It’s not. If I don’t get a response to an email, I’m picking up the phone. Unless you put a read receipt on it, you don’t know if the email was received. Technology works except when it doesn’t.
How many partners? I find it also odd that multiple partners are ignoring it. Did the email even go through?
Define not really close. Is your team so big that they wouldn’t know who you are at all and think maybe it’s not their responsibility?
