5-6 people have quit in the past couple weeks, they don’t know I’m planning to leave soon too (just chatting)

Just relaxing at the end of my work week and feeling chatty.

I’m going to quit in about 2 months to join the family business. Work has been miserable, morale is so low, there’s a parade of managers. I haven’t had one longer than 6 months the entirety of my tenure here.

Leadership are all micromanaging the hell out of everybody. There were no holiday parties this year despite RTO. No holiday bonuses. Everyone hates it but the tech job market isn’t great so everyone’s been forced to stay longer than preferred.

Fortunately for my colleagues it seems lots of them found jobs… coincidentally happened around the same time and we’ve had 4 people leave this week and I’ve heard of 2 more who’ve given their notices.

My interim manager (after my most recent boss left) has been priming me to be their right-hand and I’m just busting inside at the fact that I’m on my way out too. 🤣

I’m just like “yes absolutely” “oh totally I’ll get right on that” “long term vision blah blah” “career growth yadda yadda” 😂😂😂

Knowing I’ve got a foot out the door makes me feel like a weight’s been lifted tbh. All these shitty strategy calls happening that would normally stress me out about future impact… it’s rolling right off henny!! 😂
