The company I work for is fairly small. Less than 75 people total. The management, from day one, has emphasized that they are not the type of firm that will show people to the door as soon as they give notice that they are quitting. They have repeatedly stated that the prefer to have notice 2 to 3 months in advance, when possible, so that they can hire and train a replacement.
I'm now inside the 3 month window of quitting. My spouse is in the Marines and we will be PCSing to Corpus in July. My fear is that I take them at their word and they back off their original statement and I'm left hanging unemployed for several months. Then again if I give them the traditional 2 weeks notice I worry about burning bridges. I'm leaning towards not risking going unemployed and waiting till early July to drop the bomb but I thought I'd get some outside opinions here.
