I’ve never quit a company, what are best practices in how to approach and execute so no bridges are burned? I’ve seen some people not share their new job, take only a week notice, what’s the right way?

Give 2 weeks. Thank people for all you learned from them and the positive experiences along the way, even if it’s few. Help the team transition. If asked, share why you’re leaving without being negative.

Don’t trash the agency on the way out — to clients, to your colleagues. You will cross paths again with some of the people you work with today, and people have a long memory in this industry.

Make sure you give at least your two weeks. If you know you're leaving soon, I'd also start working on some transition docs secretly if you have some time. The real key is making sure the team you leave behind is set up for success and that they are still moving forward successfully without you.

15 YOE, recently started my first tech PR job at a large, stable company & have been asked to get ~20 SMEs in front of media. Subject matter is not sexy. I lead PR for all of U.S. & have no other PR colleagues. My agency’s budget is 100k/year & they’re spread too thin to hit their KPIs. I feel set up to fail & feel we should be focusing on a handful of SMEs and only our sexiest topics. Any advice on mitigating unrealistic expectations for coverage? Anyone handled similar problems in the past?
