How many days notice is recommended when turning in notice? Not worried about burning bridges .

In my employment contract it says both parties must give 2 weeks notice. If not, the terminating party must pay the other for those two weeks.

If you have a similar clause, you would be on the hook to pay EY for every day under 2 weeks. Not fun

OP sounds like you are ready to GTFO. 😂 Still, don’t be rash—give proper notice. You may not think you care about burning bridges but you will later, because it is a very very small world.

Days notice varies by country and company. Like PwC1 said, look in your contract.

If you are a manager at EY our contracts say 30 days. I gave three weeks and there was no pushback

@OW1 agree that the world is small. You would be surprised (maybe not) how many people I interview and I know someone they have worked with in the past. I'm not afraid to drop them a note and ask what they think of you.

I believe in the philosophy of learning from other's experiences, success stories, mistakes and regrets while keeping in mind that similar set of life events may unfold into totally different ways/outcomes for others as there are always too many variables in the equation called LIFE. People may arrive at different destinations at different times while being on the almost similar path.
