The professional and respectable move is to sit down with your direct supervisor and tell them in person. You send the official resignation letter after you leave the meeting.
Pro
No. It’s been a few years in a toxic work environment thank you. I don’t owe a stranger an explanation. I’m happy 😊

Seriously? The way companies treat employees and people talk about the "professional" "respectful" way? I'd send a postcard from Cabo saying "I'm out dude, Peace. Live long and prosper"
I didn't renew my annual contract, sent four months late. When they asked me to send it in, by email, I, by email, said I wasn't intending to return. This was three months after the last contract ended with no guarantee (academia).
Two things:
- don't burn bridges if you may want to cross them again
- the level of respect earned is a good way to decide on the level of respect given
Depends on how good of a company of leaders you had and are you possibly coming back ?
If it’s no then email is fine
The most professional way is to:
1. Discuss with yo supervisor
2. Give a written 2-weeks notice
3. Diligently serve the notice up to the end of the 2-weeks
3. Return all properties in your possession belonging to the workplace
4. Peacefully part with your supervisor amd co-workers peacefully in case you want to come back next time.
Just do not go to workplace probably they will understand
Speak to manager first and then send a formal letter, giving you intended date of leaving, and thanking them for the experience, etc. Be polite, because you never know when you might need to apply there again, so don't burn your bridges.
What is the percentage of former employees reapplying to a former job? I know is us very very small. Why resign just to reapply?!?!? So glad I have less than three years to ever having to work again. Tires of these odd behaviors and suspected mentally ill people running businesses.
I've been a work from home mom for over 15 years but when I was in the work world I'd give my resignation letter in person to my supervisor during our weekly touch base meetings. I'd save it for the end of the meeting.
If your boss is anything like my former director, nothing i did was right. If I called to verbalize my resignation, she would have said i should've emailed it to her so she has it in writing. If I sent it in writing (which is what I did), I should have called to talk it through because an email is just a cold way to deliver a resignation. Well, no one knows cold like that particular director of HR! Best of luck to you and your future! PS - my former director can suck it haha
Personally, I would just send an email to the manager letting them know that EOD that day would be your last day. Let's be honest, if they were downsizing (like most companies are nowadays) they are not going to come to you personally. They are going to send you an email and tell you that your job is GONE and have a nice day!
At the end of the day, leave your emotions out of the equation. Be the bigger person, schedule a meeting with your manager with a clear meeting agenda, go prepared with your talking points, and provide a formal written resignation letter following the meeting. They could ask you to leave immediately, they could counteroffer (DON’T take it), or they ask you to help transition your projects to ensure your colleagues don’t get screwed.
I'd send a condolence card to the manager saying sorry for their loss. I'm done!
I recently did this. Since I’m virtual, I called my manager on teams and told her and then told her I would follow up with an email stating my resignation and the date. I gave 2 weeks notice.
Though you are leaving the company, you work with the people. I have learned log ago to not burn bridges, so I would let the people that you work with know that you are leaving via email, but call your manager. You never know if one day you are looking for a job and one of the people that you currently work with is at the company you are applying to and your name comes up and they say "I worked with that person and they just left after a day's notice"...
I called my manager and then I let HR know. Then I told my work buddies. Then I told my team. All is well. Everyone is happy for me. It’s a toxic work environment and everyone has been getting laid off left and right. 🙂↔️ it’s been wild. I got out before they did it to me.
You should give a 2 week notice, it is the professional thing to do. That is if you plan to put them down on your resume because your new employer will be calling them to not only verify employment but to ask how you were as an employee. Do you want them to say, "They gave no notice and just quit." This makes you look unreliable, and not trustworthy. Future employers don't want that type of employee. No matter how miserable you are at one company, you want to always leave with advanced notice and you also don't want to ever badmouth past employers.
In person
Do you have a job or just quitting
I have a new job
It’s always best to call or see the boss in person. It shows that you know what you want and it is decided upon. Emailing seems as if a person is trying to hide. Life is always about confronting situations—good or bad.
You should ask them to chat and hop on a meeting (virtually) or in person. I don’t know how you and your direct supervisor are, but in either case, it’s the respectful thing to do. (That I would also do even if I didn’t like or agree with my direct supervisor)
I just did that not too long ago in a very toxic job. Sent them an email. Got it done and over moved on. If its like a bad ex, just send them an email then move along.
Always best in person, if not over the phone/Teams, then follow with a formal letter.
I work in IT in quite a niche area, so we all know/of each other in the industry, working together or with someone you know, so repoutation is key, you may need references/recommendations in the future, so always best to act professionally and leave on a good note, even if you are unhappy/annoyed.
I have known people to 'have their say' when leaving and slate a company/management, rightly or wrongly, word get's around and it can affect your future prospects, so best to take the emotion of out if and move on in a professional manner.
It is called personal references, how in the world can a company forbid any person from exercising their freedom of speech?
Don't leave. I've been unemployed since 10/31. Yes, it's only been a week, but there isn't anyone in the universe that I'd hate so much to stick them in this job market.
Are you planning on staying in the same field or industry? Are you leaving on good terms?
Given how little manangement usually gives a Sh*T about people that work for them, I would just send a brief text and tell them ¡Hasta luego!
Is is not worth your time to type up an email or waste time on a call.
