I have been extended a very generous offer to go work for a competitor. My question is for those that have told thier bosses that they will be moving on. How did you break the news to your boss (one that I really like and have learned a ton from), How did the other employes act towards you for the remaining two weeks? Please take a minute and tell me about your situation and the end result!
I look forward to your ANSWERS!! |

I have done this once. I made it short, simple, and to the point.
I told my employer at the time, " I absolutely love working for you, but it's time for me to move on." I explained that I had an amazing opportunity working in the field in which I had only dreamed. Not only did it pay for more; it was better for me, and my family. He was truly saddened by the news. I finished out my last days with no problem at all. I even trained my replacement. I made sure she knew exactly what to do, and even wrote down every thing step by step for her.
It was bitter sweet. But I knew that I could always come back If I ever need a job. |

If you are going to work for a competitor I seriously doubt you will have to worry about the two weeks :-) |

Sit down with your boss. explain to him that you have another offer in hand that is very interesting, they are offering x amount. you can say,that he has been a mentor to you and you don't want to leave, also insert some economic problems (inflation), if he thinks highly of his employees he will match their offer, if not, give him your two weeks notice. but allow him to match the competitors offer. you will still win. |

Go about it professionally. Tell your supervisor and Human Resources that you are giving your two week notice. Don't go into the details. If asked, remain vague and say a more lucrative opportunity has presented itself.
Make sure that your employment agreement doesn't have a no compete clause. Most employers don't sue, but you could face a lawsuit if you don't wait the designated waiting period before going to a competitor. |

everyone has the right to better themselves. Just be sure to give 2 weeks notice. |

Tell them the truth. A better offer has been presented to you and for your current (financial) situation (family's situation if you have one) it makes complete sense for you to move ahead with this change in your life. No hard feelings to your current company or boss, but it is business and for you to further your career or accomplish your goals sooner, you need this move. Most likely they will be pretty understanding, and who knows they might surprise you. I was in the exact situation you are in, and my old company asked what the extras (salary + benefits) I was getting at the new company, and my old company then offered me the same package; so I got to stay with the people I liked and get the best offer. |

I have done the exact same thing this week. I basically said that I accepted another opportunity and will be leaving the company (I did not say specifically where at because it is a competitor) But I then said thank you for the opportunity and experiences I had working here. They took it rather well and said that we will be sad to lose you but you need to do what is best for you and the company will still move on. Trust me, it was very stressful prior to doing so, but after I gave my 2 weeks notice, I felt so much better. As far as your co-workers go, it can be tough because they always try digging for the details. Stay strong and just say it is for a similar company and you prefer not to say specifically. And good luck with your new job. |

I would first make sure you didn't sign anything saying that you have to wait for a period of time before you can go work for a competitor. This happened to my husband a number of years ago and it turned out he was ineligible to work for the other company for one year after being employed by the first company. He got screwed out of two jobs.
Otherwise, if you really like your boss and want to thank them for helping you to get to this point, take him/her to lunch and break the news there. If they are a true professional, they should wish you luck and offer to help in any way they can to assist you in making the transition. If their not, taking them to a public place should cut down on the loud reaction to your decision to part from them and the company! (Jilted lover (employer) syndrome!) |

Are you certain of your Competitors Long-Range Ethics? You want to be darn sure that their integrity will be there as your current bosses has been?
Having said that, tell your boss about the offer! Explain the things you have learned, and why those things have improved your value in the business world, AS EVIDENCED by the current offer. With, I admit, only your brief question to go by, I still would think that a person that has been a quasi-mentor to you, would pony up a counter-offer, or gracefully allow that you have grown into a new area, and give you whatever reservation or needs he/she might require.
NO REASON TO SELL SHORT THE FACT THAT YOU ARE MOVING UPWARDS. That is YOUR work paying off. You already paid your company back by being the employee you have been. As long as you are not involved in a contract where you are!
GOOD LUCK |

Working for a competitor unfortunately is a conflict of interest- most companies when they find out who you are working for won't allow you to finish out your two week stay. *at least thats what happened to me*
It's easier to sit with the guy one on one and tell him you have had an offer and you are considering it because of: better pay? better hours? better location? or better advancement? Let him know you've had an offer and think you might take it. It's best to be professional and lay it out nicely. You'll have your answer after your first chat. Best of Luck! |
