I'd try to tell him before he left so you can give two weeks. But it's just a courtesy, not a requirement.
Probably.
Two weeks is always preferred whenever possible. However keep in mind that when a firm fires someone, they don’t give them a two week notice. Don’t burn a bridge if it’s avoidable, but also do what you need to do/what works best for you. In this particular scenario it seems like it makes the most sense to go ahead and tell them asap.
If your partner did right by you, do right by them and tell them before they go on their vacation. You’re moving out of state, not stealing their first born aka their favorite associate.
Print out your two weeks notice and get with him before he leaves on vacation. Two weeks is still the unwritten requirement and they can't say you did not give them notice. Just say apologies for this notice before you leave on vacation but I need to give you this (hand over letter) its my two weeks notice. I am moving out of town and its unavoidable. Thank you for the time I have worked here. NO bridges burned.
Agreed. You never know what may happen down the road. Do not burn bridges if that can be avoided.
As a partner, I would prefer you tell me before my vacation. I’m going to work some anyway, and I can put things in motion that will lessen the impact of you leaving.
Thanks for your response - my question is, will it be considered burning a bridge to only give one week notice in general?
No one can say for sure if you personally will be burning a bridge with this company and who you report to, but the consensus is that you should give 2 weeks. Is there a reason why you would rather wait until your manager is back from vacation so that it is only a 1-week notice? Do you not have a good professional relationship, have they retaliated against you in the past, or are you doing it so that this isn't a focus/weight of their head while your boss is on vacation? If you have a good working relationship give the 2-weeks notice. I've experienced peers give a 1-week notice and the way they are treated during that one week doesn't go well all around, and yes, often can result in no professional references as you did in part burn a bridge by having a department scramble for a backfill or a new hire. The reason for your notice doesn't always matter, it's how you conducted yourself and the fact you took into account they need time and notice too. You already know you have another job offer, you already know you are moving .... doesn't really seem like there is a reason you shouldn't give them 2 weeks. Are you trying to avoid potential end of work tenure micromanaging or backlash and wanting it shortened to just 1 week? Just trying to understand why you'd give 1 week's notice when you seemed poised enough to give 2. Giving 1 week can definitely come across that you don't care.
Personally I think one week is lame. Give people time to replace you. Whether it’s burning a bridge or not I can’t speak to that. But if someone I rely on gives me one week’s notice they’re not getting a Christmas card (figuratively speaking because I don’t do Christmas cards)
I’d say give two weeks. Most of the feedback argue with your fear that it’s an unwritten law, and your stress rn sounds like it’s probably from an unhealthy work environment so you might regret it later once you leave and decompress. Even if you don’t care abt burning bridges so much with your boss, if it were me I’d be more worried abt burning bridges with others in the firm. And who knows your new position may not work out as you hope it to. I’d give two weeks and be glad your boss is away on vacation so there’s less awkwardness. You’ll most likely loose respect from everyone there if you don’t, even if it has only been a year. Otherwise if your minds made up, why ask?
Dang, two weeks notice is very professional and looked upon with higher regard. Take the high road and say good bye, good luck and mean it.
One week is burning a bridge yes
Hmm I have to disagree with your characterization of me as being “scared” and “lazy”. Unprofessional and horrible would be if I straight up stopped showing up without any sort of explanation whatsoever. But thanks for your input.
Yes, it would be horrible to give only one week when you know now that you are leaving. Give him your notice before he leaves so he/they can start prepping for finding a replacement. Unless they have screwed you over, why would you want to screw them over?
You have nothing to stress about - The "unwritten law" is a custom, not a requirement. Decide what you would rather do ..... give two weeks, and risk impacting your boss' vacation, or wait till he gets back and give one week's notice. The sad reality is..... if the situation was on the other foot, and a directive came from the C suite they had to cut a certain number of positions immediately, you could be one of those impacted people who would be told, "Sorry, you have no job effrective immediately. Remove your personal items from the office and leave immediately.
