Ok, so I started a position at a company at the beginning of July. Let’s just say it hasn’t been a great experience. I actually really have hated it. So much so that I began applying for other roles shortly after starting. It just wasn’t a good fit. Anyway, I was presented a very good offer at another company recently and accepted. My question is have you ever quit a role this soon after starting? Idk the best way to go about it. As bad as it sounds idk if I even have 2 weeks left in me. Help?

If it's so bad you can't finish just give them your notice for the end of the day. If your not going to be there at least let them know. Take your 2 weeks to recover and start fresh at the new job. Good luck!

I am in a similar situation and considering applying elsewhere. I took a signing bonus and am worried about having to pay that back since I didn’t stay a year. Did you run into this issue??

Anyone have advice for advancing in your current role? My co-worker was hired in at manager level but somehow “proved” he was actually doing director level work and got a title promotion and salary increase in less than a year. I also went above and beyond my job as well (covering for him for a month while he was away on paternity leave) while taking on other projects outside of my job title and got zip—no raise or recognition. Any advice would be appreciated!

Im a third year and my current firm isn't bad and I'm pretty comfortable here. Im satisfied most of the time. There is one firm I've been keeping my eyes on because of its similarities to where I currently am (nice people, similar hours, culture).

Im a bit burned out now and I would love to take a long break. I'm hoping I can take a break (2 months) between the transition but is this a good reason to move though? Would you move in my situation? Im sure there will be a signing bonus.

I am an IT architect with 10 years of experience specifically in Salesforce products. I am thinking of moving from a strategy consulting role to an architecture role in Salesforce (company) itself. I have experience building tech strategies and also technical project delivery.

Wondering if it makes sense to apply for an Enterprise Architect (pre-sales) or a Senior Technical Architect role??

Also in terms of seniority and salary are these roles any different?
