I’m probably about to hand in my notice - moving from a Big 4 firm to a specialist consultancy, so not a direct competitor as such. How do people break up with their current company without burning bridges?

There’s no way they’d make a good enough counter-offer to make me stay now, but I’d happily come back at my new Grade in a few years - so I don’t want to just flat out say “I don’t like this job, and they’re doubling my salary”. What’s corporate for “we can still be friends”? 😅

Just hand in your notice. People don’t really care about this stuff. If you don’t make it weird, it won’t be weird.

Best of luck with the new opportunity

Asking for wife who's also in banking. If she got ~$100k in signing bonus in 2019 for 1 year commitment in CA and started FT in July 2020, assuming she leaves before July 2021, can her employer claw back full amount in California? Some say it's much tougher to do so under CA law but wonder if anyone has any insights. Banks won't likely care about analyst signing bonuses, but associate bonus at EB with diversity bonus can be significant. If she quits before, she won't be going to another bank.
