I recently finished my Masters in Cyber Security and have a Bachelors in Software Development. As much as I love the technical aspect of my degrees, I think the happiest me would be in tech sales. I had found an opportunity at IBM for entry level sales starting in 2023 and was wondering if anyone had gone through this or the Summit program? Looking for insight on applying and would love to chat with anyone who has or currently works for IBM! Thanks in advance!

Can someone walk me through a provision
I am doing a poll of sorts. I got an offer from Deloitte as a Tax Consultant II in their Hedge Fund Group and an offer from PwC as an Experienced Associate in their Asset Wealth Management Group. Which one would you choose? Comps are very similar, PwC is just offering a little bit more but nothing too crazy. PwC Deloitte

Those who know, know.
If they don’t pay the 2 weeks, they won’t get the notice anymore. Did this actually happen, or are you speculating?
They typically will payout the 2 weeks to avoid having to payout unemployment, from what I understand. I would see if you qualify for at least that for the two weeks
Usually if you go to a competitor, Deloitte won’t make you work the two weeks but you will get paid for them. I’ve never heard of a situation in the 6 years I’ve been here where you have to turn in your computer AND you don’t get paid. That’s pretty ridiculous
That wasn’t the case for me at KPMG - have you put in a 2 week notice before lol
yes
I have heard BDO does this.
I start at a new firm in July. My company manual says "4 weeks notice" minimum.. I think I'm doing 2 weeks but aftet reading this im conflicted
also want my accrued pto paid out. its like 20 days worth. I wonder what the law is for NY
You’ll get a full PTO payout. Divide your base salary by 2080 and that’s your hourly rate; multiply that number by your accrued PTO hours and that should be the gross payout before taxes
I think if they don’t like you or don’t think you’ll be useful in your role during those last 2 weeks they’ll end it immediately. If they feel you’ll actually get stuff done or they wanna retain a positive relationship with you, they’ll let you stay on (because let’s face it, employers are hurting for talent right now). I gave a 3 week notice and RSM is allowing me to finish my project, even though I am going to a competitor
yeah, but after this i think i will never go back to BDO again. if i am keeping my career in public firm
I haven’t heard it happening a lot, but my old company did that to me. I would never go back to them, and if I thought I wouldn’t get paid for my two weeks when I change jobs again eventually, I’m basically going to drop off my computer and leave.
Even if they let you go the next day, BDO generally still pays the two weeks as far as I know.
Can you reach out to the new firm to see if you can start sooner? That happened to me before and they were able to move up my start date.
Which country are you in? Does it not differ with the jurisdiction you're in?
