I have a great relationship with my partner (work with him about 70%). I’ve always felt like he had my back. I wasn’t promoted this year which prompted me to start looking outside, there are other reasons too as I thought about path to partner, WLB, hot market. I now have an offer in the industry which is 100% wfh and in cybersecurity. Need help on how to approach the conversation with him? Where do I even start? I know there will be pushback/guilt and I’m dreading the discussion.

I just left and felt the same way about the partners I work with. However when I told my partners they were all supportive, even if they were surprised. They were curious as to why I was leaving and asked if there was anything they could do to make me stay, which felt nice and wasn’t forceful at all. Also because of the promotion situation, they probably won’t be surprised anyway. The conversations are almost always easier than expected, you’ll be fine.

Do you think partially the reason you are not promoted is due to his not backing up enough?

Then isn't fair to say that he did not have your back as you thought (i.e. you are overconfident on your professional relationship)?

If so, I think you should leave. The most important reason to stay in PA is to make partner and to do that, number one is to have strong sponser from partner.
