JPMorgan Chase Requires Tech Workers Give 6 Months Notice Before Quitting

A veteran JPMorgan Chase banker fumed over the financial giant's policy requiring certain staffers to give six months' notice before being allowed to leave for another job. From a report: The Wall Street worker, who claims to earn around $400,000 annually in total compensation after accumulating 15 years of experience, griped that the lengthy notice period likely means a lucrative job offer from another company will be rescinded. Taking to the social media platform Blind -- which allows career professionals anonymity so that they can freely post without concern about retribution from their bosses -- the worker in the e-trade division lamented over the policy. "So I had made up my mind to resign from JPM (New York) and look for a new role," the Blind poster wrote in an item titled, "Notice period blues. When I looked into the resignation process, I see that my notice period is 6 bloody months!! I was in disbelief, I checked my offer letter and 'Whoops there it is,'" the post continued.
