I’m Leaving my job after 3 months for a dream opportunity that circled back to me. Any advice for how to tell my boss tomorrow virtually? I work in accounting at a tech company. I’m joining a non-tech company (and non-accounting role). I also have the option to not say anything for another month but figured it’s better to say something early on vs. when I fully trained

I’ve been in this exact situation.

Just tell them you found a better opportunity and thank them for their time. Don't overthink it because the chances are good that they won't.
Nowadays, pretty much everyone understands that you have to do what is best for you, so rip the bandaid off and move on to your exciting, new opportunity!

Thank you!!

Definitely schedule a time to speak with them.. the world is too small and you never know if you will even possibly end up working together again.. they may be disappointed or upset, but that has more to do with THEM than you.

Definitely nice to say something earlier than later but ultimately you’re doing what’s best for you. So long as you don’t get inside that two week notice range you’re fine.

Give your boss a phone call - no Zoom. It’s more intimate in some ways.

Congratulations :)

It’s my second week at this job, was given an assignment to submit jobs into the MLR review system. I did not get the MLR training yet but worked with the existing submissions team and got boss’s approval at the agency to make it happen. Now MLR team asked us to follow the guidelines, and my boss is throwing me under the bus for not “opening” the jobs correctly. I am already breaking down and think I’m a failure, but some people think I’m not being set up for success. Should I move jobs?

Anyone else notice a trend with the mass amounts of layoffs in tech? Why are all their resumes so jumpy? Not like 2-5 years jumpy, like few months at a time jumpy? But still can land a position with similar tech giants? IMO, lots of these people get hired by their rich friends, stay a few months before someone realized they aren’t qualified and were just a recommendation from a current employee. Then repeat that process over and over until your company is down 50%
