There'll always be something going on to keep you where you are.
Pursue what's in your own best interest. Some companies try to hang-on after you've given notice by trying to keep some level of commitment ... either part-time, or remote. I'd recommend against this as-well. Find your new place of employment, give notice, and have a clean-break at the end of your notice-period.

I actually had the opposite experience both times I left FTE to consult. It was really great to have a first client that I didn't have to sell and who was ready to start using my services immediately. However, if you are moving from one w2 job to another, I would follow uptown's advice and refuse to work for your prior employer. I don't think there's anything wrong with saying "sure, go ahead and ping me if you have the occasional question" because that is showing that you care for the employees still remaining, but don't take money for that. Not taking money means you can easily set boundaries and focus on your new work environment (where the first 90 days can make or break your experience).
