Resignation related - do you share new employer names, what do you say when asked about new employer name? Any suggestions for best ways to handle this, and if you do share the new employer name when is the best time to do so?

Taking some time off as I plan my next stage in life.

It’s so situational. With my last resignation, I shared the name of the new employer immediately. I was leaving to work for a firm that we had an active contract with and I wanted to be transparent about how the offer came about, as well as provide an opportunity for the employer to take the necessary steps to contract me back if they wanted since there was close to zero chance they were going to replace me in a timely manner (well over six months later they don’t even have an applicant). I also needed someone to immediately take over the oversight of that contract.

Honestly if you ask me, I don’t care sharing.
It’s just that - there could be a possible Non compete which I don’t want them to action on during my departure.

Dont burn bridges. If going to competitor, probably best to share details. If other, maybe share less specific details if youre not comfortable with full disclosure. Its not uncommon to boomerang. Take the high road, be honest, speak the truth. Its a pivotal moment and how you handle speaks louder than the transition itself.

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
