I’m about to resign without anything lined up (I have to serve a 6 weeks notice) because my company’s culture is toxic af and it’s been affecting my physical and mental health. Should I tell the firm why I’m resigning?

Is the 6th week notice in your employment contract and is that what people actually provide? I don’t think I would allow myself to be hamstrung by a draconian notice period in order to find a better role and lose wages in the process.

That said, hr is looking after the firm’s interest. Neither HR or the firm’s leadership likely cares what you think, or change in response to your feedback. It might be harsh. I’d say that I’m resigning for personal reasons and decline to be specific.

Why not - if you are leaving anyways. I would be more specific than just that it is toxic and give examples of issues you’ve encountered. Usually the appropriate place to do this is in your exit interview with human resource.

Why not try to use all your PTO, or get leave of absence first, then start looking

Ask doctor for intermediate leave... You can

Why do you HAVE to serve a 6 weeks notice? Check your state and if you are in an at-will state (which you most likely are, unless you live in Montana), whatever they put in your offer letter about notice period is null and void.

Just take a job and tell them youre leaving at x date. 6 week notice cannot be real

If it’s toxic, don’t respect the 6 week notice. Just apply, get a Kobe and whatever amount of time they need you to a start in, give that amount of notice.

I am a top performer, with great metrics, and I have some wonderful connections I’ve made who support me. I just can’t seem to move up. How long did it take you to move up? How many tries did it take?

Should you discuss salary range with an internal company recruiter prior to setting up an interview? With external recruiters it’s pretty easy to talk about the expected range.
