Bowl Leader
I've been interviewing with some companies, and now I have to decide between JPMorgan Chase and Globant.
Globant is more innovative, and has remote work. I will enter to work with a Sillicon Valley startup based in San Francisco. The tech stack is React, Nextjs, AWS, and a serverless architecture.
JPM is semi remote, and less innovative. The tech stack Java, SpringBoot and AWS. But I'd do more migration tasks, like dockerize projects and pass them to kubernetes. What would you choose?

Please don’t. Send an email to the people that you know, the rest of us don’t care.

This was not your question but here is my response in the hope a few people might read this. I’m an Irish citizen living in the US and needed someone to explain this phrase “Irish goodbye” to me. Even something “funny” or “descriptive” can be discriminatory. The phrase is in poor taste, if not a little ignorance. Drop the Irish car bombs, the Irish goodbyes, the Irish twins etc. Just because you don’t intend for something to be disrespectful - doesn’t mean it isn’t. And trust me, Irish folks can take it, but doesn’t mean we should have to.. words and phrases have history and not all of them are innocent.
lol I’m also Irish and have no clue what an Irish good bye is :) can someone explain I’m curious

C3, horrible recommendation. I did this. With COVID, no one was at HQ to see it. Total waste of salt. I’d recommend waiting until the great return to go with this option.
During your two weeks, have one on one’s with each person you actually care about to let them know, then on the final day, send a bcc email to those people and possibly a handful of acquaintances. But there’s literally no benefit to sending a blast to a bunch of random people who just happen to live near you
Please. I beg of you - do not do this.
And then one day you’re looking for a job again and one those people on the company-wide farewell email recognizes your name…. and you don’t get the job
So true
Interesting to see that most people are against it. In my firm, it’s common courtesy to send a farewell email to the whole division (~400 people). And quite frankly, I appreciate those emails because otherwise I would have never known when someone is leaving.
Normally I just send it to anyone I've worked with, so anyone who might care gets it, but not anyone else.
Don’t do it, I always think the people who do are ridiculous. Have 1:1s with people you are close to, send an email to just your extended circle.
Tbh I like the farewell emails. Sometimes it’s odd getting them from people I don’t know, but I still read them.
Send it to the people who made the time worthwhile, who mentored you, who you learned from, who you enjoyed working with. No need to send it to everyone just because you worked with them at some point if they were hard to work with or just toxic.
Interesting to see the criticism over doing everyone. My office generally does office wide goodbyes…
Pretty sure B3s comment is in response to BCG1 who is talking about office wide emails.
I also really enjoy office wide leaving emails. Usually funny stories and nice to see where people are moving on to (even if I don’t know them)
We typically do office, function, or sector wide goodbyes as well. It’s actually one of my favorite parts of each Friday
Blast it everywhere; company wide emails, email all your clients, write a gigantic LinkedIn post about your trials and tribulations and how much leadership you’ve learned - blah, blah, blah. Or just send it to the few people with whom you’ve made relationships and realize the rest of us don’t care. TL;DR - pls fix.

just send it company wide. EVERY single person in the company.
As if there were enough reasons in this thread to already ask you to not include everyone - consider the environment. Sending unnecessary emails to 1000 people is not nothing
Don’t need to ghost - I didn’t read the responses as a 1 or 0 situation previously. Personally I would thank / acknowledge the people out of courtesy I worked with but not spam everyone either on slack / email.
What’s an Irish goodbye!?
Leaving without saying anything

No. No. No
I sent out individual emails to the most important people and then a single group email to my immediate engagement sub-group (team of 5) all with my last day and contact info
Say goodbye to the people you truly want to remain connected to. Ignore the remaining 95%
