One of the SM I know left the firm but never disclosed and his LinkedIn isn’t updated as well. To these days we don’t know where he went but from what we have heard he is doing well. So to answer your question you just said I have a better opportunity and leave it at that. If they push too much just I don’t want to disclose. But when I left I told couple of my friends, other people still wonder and I haven’t updated my LinkedIn either.

Tell them if they ask don’t offer if they don’t. Is there a compelling reason for the move? Money ? Level? Culture? Or are you just ready for a change. If so You can De-personalize it by saying you just wanted to have different experiences in your early career.

Not talking about it doesn’t protect you from violations of your noncompete. In my experience, transparency reduces the scope of the noncompete so both you and your former employer feel like it is fair

So, how did it go?

Where are you going?

Just tell them different firm or Accenture. Reason being is that they offered you SM and significant pay raise which was not matched your current firm or whatever

And why is answering those questions harder than actually leaving?

Leaving ACN to D. it will just be a shock to my team. Gonna miss those guys! Engagement leadership not so much... I’ll go with the “haven’t decided from my options “ spill

U don’t have to tell your team where, just tell them you will once u leave. I had one close manager went to KPMG, he didn’t tell me where until my his last day. He called few days later, said he was with KPMG and he wanted me join his team. Dude was trying to earn referral bonus already but I enjoying my time here at acn.

You may need to disclose. Look at your employment contract.

I'm about to give notice too for a competitor. Should I be worried about my non compete?
New firm is asking that I get a waiver. Doesn't that raise more flags?

You have no obligation to tell your old employer where you are going to. None of their business. If you are senior enough, just beware of any non-competes. It still doesn’t require discloser.
