Five years in big tech role, as a manager
Resigned this week, due to management interactions becoming untenable, despite loving my team. In this market, it's anxiety inducing. Manager and skip level did not reply to my resignation until over a day later, and responded with the most generic platitudes I've ever received. I've never held any job for this long, and received so little response to a resignation, after hiring, leading and managing ever-growing teams successfully for years. All prior tech jobs tried actively to keep me, and I'm five years more experienced than I was back then. Fine not to keep me, but the lack of response was something else. Feeling totally thrown off. Is this normal? Welcome to tech in 2026?
