I want to quit, I’m miserable at this job. Looking at potentail jobs that start beginning or mid March. If I give 2-3 weeks notice is the company going to resent me for leaving mid busy season? What’s the most respectable way to go about this.

Don't go to BDO as the guy ^ is a managing director. If an MD is out here recruiting people, good chance that the firm must be desperate for talent lol

I just gave notice and my team respected the fact that I’m staying through filing. If you go to a competitor’s same service line, you might not be able to work your 2 weeks FYI.

If you tell them you’re going to a competitor they may terminate you on the spot and not allow you to work your two week notice period. It really depends on your partners though, there’s no black or white rule. Personally I’ve never heard about it happening to anyone I’ve worked with.

Though if you do get let go immediately, I heard that you still get paid for the 2 weeks, so it’s kind of a best case scenario lol. But given the current staffing needs of PA firms in general, I’d expect them to let you work your notice period.

I think you should do it now or wait
Its based on generation- newer will job hop or leave during busy season
Older will stay for a long time or wait until the end of busy season

In the end its your choice - can you leave on good terms during busy season?

Is there a chance that you would stay with RSM if they realign your work with something that interests you more?

It’s more about the work life balance and the compensation not being worth the stress and effort I’m putting in

smart

I left on good terms during a busy season. I think it’s just important to be transparent about why you need to do that. My team respected my decision & was thankful that I took delayed start date to help them through part of busy season

What time did you leave in busy season
