Hey guys! I wanted to share #HoldThePRess which is an initiative, inspired by #PullUpForChange and 600 and Rising, holding the PR industry accountable for recruiting and cultivating Black talent at all levels. The website with more info and to sign on in support is holdthe-press.com and you can sign whether you are Black or an ally. Also, we are planning on presenting the asks and demands to agencies in the coming weeks and will be sharing via the website and on IG: @holdthe_press.

Most places would appreciate that!
As long as you are not going to a direct competitor (or going to work on a current client’s direct competitor), hard to imagine any place not being ok with that.
I gave my former job 2 months, even though only needed to give 2 weeks, because I knew they'd be lost without me. Not only did they love me for it, but my new job also appreciated that I cared enough about my team not to leave them out to dry. As long as communication with your new employer is open, I think you should always offer (unless, of course, the company/team you're leaving are a-holes).
I think your always best to offer 3-4 weeks if you want to maintain a good relationship on your way out. Any more than that can be painful for all involved
The higher your level, the more time I've seen organizations appreciate having to get things in order. Two things to consider:
1) would they offer you the same courtesy? Most places would drop you with zero warning.
2) be prepared that they may end your employment early, possibly even that day. Just weigh if you need the income before deciding.
What’s in it for you? Six weeks is a long time to work with people who know you don’t want to be there.
In the UK we do 3 months, or 6 months if it's a board director level type of position. It's hard to hire at top levels so any additional notice I'm sure it's more than welcome!
I’d give 4 weeks+ for anyone who is over a department.
The norm in the UK is minimum 4 weeks. 3 months manager level 6 months director and above.
Why not take time off between jobs instead?
