Heck no. Do what’s best for you. They will replace you in a heartbeat.
That partner is guilting you in hopes that you make his life easier... there is no reason to feel bad!!
I can see why you would feel guilty but if they’ve been short staffed for months it kind of begs the question why weren’t they recruiting or addressing reasons why people were leaving. We’re all employed at will, so all you really owe them is sufficient notice of when your last day will be.
Unless he’s sharing that engagement fee with you, then no
Don’t feel guilty for advancing YOUR career.
No - you should do what’s best for you
Lol no. You may feel like a log that is on fire, but realize that you are just one log among many in a bonfire.
Hard no.
Having been on the other side of that conversation, and knowing that you are in no risk of losing your current job, my advice is to be honest with the partner. Tell him/her that you actually are looking and why. If he/she has any hope of making your job worth keeping, say what that would look like. If not, tell them that you are not submitting your notice but that you wanted to privately give them as much runway as possible to plan so that you won’t feel guilty for leaving on short notice. You don’t owe loyalty or permanent employment, but honesty goes a long way.
I have been on the side that has let them know that I was looking at leaving and why and let me say they did everything to keep me and I was jot walked out the door. I left on great terms and my situation was slightly different then yours as I was moving but it never caused an issue. Honesty is best.
These firms ain't loyal, do you!
Take care of yourself first, the firm will always take care of itself first. It’s okay to voice unhappiness, but never let them know you’re leaving until you have an offer in hand. You’ll always be looked at differently and thought of as a traitor when compensation and promotions come up if you let them know you’re looking and end up staying.
It’s a business decision to stay or leave, treat it as such. They’ll firm made a business decision to end up short staffed and you have no responsibility for that. The more you can make it an emotionless decision the better.
More like lack of compensation discussions....
Nope. Don’t feel guilty. Just make the transition as smooth as reasonably possible (please don’t work for 2 weeks straight to get it all done). If this partner gives you grief then it’s good validation of your decision to leave.
Helllll no don’t feel guilty. PwC has and will lay anyone off (even 1 rated people who’ve been with the firm for 15+ years) if it is in the best interest of the firm. So do what is best for you bc they will do what is best for them when it suits them. Just try not to burn bridges but if someone gets kissed at you they’re only looking out for their own interests, just like you should.
They’re gaslighting you!!
They should feel guilty not paying you enough to stay.
No
No.
Are you kidding me? If they needed to, they'd lay you off in a hot second. Do not feel guilted into staying.
They can pay you if they need you to stay.
If not, on to greener ($$$) pastures!
Not to be morbid, just making a point, but.... If you died, life at the firm would go on. They would replace you and keep on trucking. You have to do what’s best for you and your career. The only reason to bring it up to them would be if you like your current job and want to stay, but want more money. Even then it’s tricky. If there’s any other reason you are leaving (moving to industry, firm culture, hours worked) then you know the only fix to that is leaving.
