Transitioning from my firm to client I’m currently working for. Got offer letter today and expect to officially accept next week. Any similar experiences and/or suggestions to make this smooth on both ends? Client flexible on start date and current project contract through early Dec. Thanks

Delivery is important.

Your shiny penny syndrome will die depending on level:

- Middle Manager: 3 - 6 Months
- VP/D: 6 - 9 Months
- ED/C-Suite: 9 - 12 Months

This is very much a proven method depending on level. Industry agnostic for the most part. But if you’re moving industry and you’re not revenue contributor you’re also thought less than.

Just did this for an audit client. Just be upfront about what timelines you might be facing and what your true contractual obligations are to your current company. Stick to those and leave as soon as you can. Unless you want to risk the other job.
