How do you usually give your two weeks notice? If you are on good terms with your team, should you give more than two weeks notice? Or does it just increase the risk of you getting let go early?

Depends… is your company currently going through reductions?

If so you don’t say anything until you have that offer and a firm start date.

Another scenario (which I personally screwed up on) below.

If you have something on lock and start date is flexible, you could ask to be put on a list and get the package walking out the door.

What list? Don’t really get the last point

My team members have given 6 weeks advance notice to our immediate project teams, 4 weeks advance notice to our PPMDs and leadership, and then 2-3 weeks advance notice to our clients and all colleagues.

My project team has been very close knit and my team members have been very gracious in giving long lead times to plan for smooth transitions.
