You need to do what’s best for you. Give them notice once you have accepted the offer and everyone set with the new place. Go out of your way to transition the best that you can, help your team members until your last day, etc.

Don’t pass up a position you want because it’s busy season where you are. The firm will survive without you.

Hopefully you are not burning brides irregardless of your other choices. Depends on how well you complete/transition off your items and duties. What other options have you found?

I would communicate with your new job that you can start 1/1 if you receive an offer because you don’t want to leave your old team short. They should understand and appreciate it, hoping you would extend them the same courtesy if you switch jobs in the future

Do what is best for you, at the end of the day isn’t that what just happened in July? The firm took actions that was best for the firm? Go for it!

PWC1 Beat me to the punch. Definite don’t burn brides. 🤣

But in all seriousness, it’s about how much notice you give, how well you help transition, and what help you are willing to provide after you leave. Granted they will likely not ask for your help after you leave the firm, but still offering to be available by phone to help answer questions or something will go a long way.

I would say it sucks but it’s not busy season for everyone else then. They pay bonuses on 9/30, when they tell you almost 3 months before. That’s a choice by the firm.

Agree you need to do what is right for you but I would say a move like this would definitely burn bridges so be prepared for that. We recently had someone leave six weeks prior to the deadline and they were not well regarded in their last two weeks with the firm. Just saying.

What’s the rush? Unless they are in dire need or have a time specific project they want you for that starts before 12/15, offer to start 12/16 and see if they are amenable. Explain the situation, that you were looking and expected the process to take longer, and that you want to finish your client engagements through the end of the deadline. They may likely understand if they are PA as well and respect you for it. If they say no to that then revaluate. But leaving mid busy season is not a good way to end a job, and limits any future oops with the firm. They may take forever to get you an offer anyway so I would just play it by ear.

If you have a really good and deep meaningful relationship with your team, then they will understand and support you. If you have a bad relationship, then who cares. If you keep a normal professional relationship with your team, well then quitting is just a part of normal business. I don’t see any reason for sticking around

I got a call from the Google recruiter about my L7 em interview Google She said I did overwhelmingly good on all interviews except one had mixed feedback on a system design. No surprise because it was not a good interview. The recruiter said i had a choice to go to hiring committee, give referrals they could call about my system design or take another system design interview. I’m not confident about the system design because of the bad experience I had with the previous interviewer. What should I do?

I’m currently making $61,000 with bonus included. Based on my research I should at least be making $71,400. I have a check in with my boss tomorrow and I am asking for a raise.
