Hi,
I've seen many good advices given in the forums and think to share my current issue here.
I've given my resignation notice last Friday. Based on my position with the company my standard notice period is two weeks. Since I'm working remotely and my supervisor was in a different country, I called him on Friday morning. I explained what my expectation of main projects to be transitioned, and I would be willing to arrange an end date works for both the company and myself.
My boss told me not to discuss this with HR or anyone else and allow him to talk to his boss first. Then it was silence until today, after I emailed him again about it. He replied that because my job responsibilities is extensive and complicated, it would be my professional courtesy to stay until they hire someone to replace me, and after I train the replacement, then I can communicate my end date.
It doesn't seem reasonable to require an open ended resignation, and he did not offer any additional compensation for me to stay on for longer than two weeks.
What would you do in this situation? We are ready to retire. Our home will be renovated next month and both of us will be busy dealing with it. I'm giving up unvested compensation (vesting in Dec and March) unless I can negotiate a severance with the company, otherwise, I'd be working longer without getting any of those pays. We are ready to buy our insurance from ACA market place once we retire.
