Is anybody planning to give their notice prior to the holiday break? Any thoughts on whether it’s too late to accept a new job before busy season?

Never too late. Just be professional about it, give as much notice as possible, and help your team with the transition.

I am! So far no one has giving me a terrible time, only one manager has been rude about it. They definitely appreciate the heads up.

I’m about to give my two weeks right before break since I start on Jan 11th.. pretty nervous tbh

Don’t give notice so early that you lose paid holiday time.

3 years ago I asked for a compensation review/raise, went through what felt like a ridiculous 8 MONTH long process of defending why it was warranted, only to be told no. 3 months ago I asked again and it has gone nowhere. I should add that salary bands are kept secret and I have no clue what the range for my position is. There are a decent amount of benefits in my position, the biggest being WLB, which is what has kept me here for so long. But I’m getting frustrated. What would you do?
