Planning to give notice Monday after ~3 months. I accepted a fully remote role, mainly because 3 days/week in-office with a long commute isn’t sustainable for me as a mom, and the remote setup is much more better for me. The hard part is I’ve built trust and made impact quickly and currently working on high-visibility projects, which will make big frustration to quit after this short period. How should I handle this without burning the bridges?

Are you saying that they’re making you adjust your remote WA to hybrid? Did they give you a reason for it? Have you requested an exception?

Be honest. Pretty simple, if they don't celebrate you leaving for the right reason, then screw em.

Family comes first. You’re doing what is right for your family. Anyone who doesn’t accept that is someone you don’t wanna work for anyhow. Best of luck.
