Tips on telling your manager you’re moving teams? For context, my old manager moved to an area I wanted to be in so he helped me to start my move there, but my skip manager is currently managing me on the old team; I don’t want to throw shade on my old/new manager bc poaching is frowned upon & he was in that department for a long time. I would also be the 4th person to leave in a month’s span, so trying to soften the blow bc it wasn’t a toxic environment, just the work was super boring :(
