I think the lesson is that not every startup is the same. Some will follow the template the author outlined and some will be different. As a rule, I'd say that you know the startup you're working for well enough to know which side you should tend towards.
- gamble 17y agoI agree in principle, but you have to take into consideration the fact that most of the risk in these decisions lies with the employee. Misjudge, and it will be a very unpleasant few months. As a rule of thumb, I would avoid giving more than required notice when quitting because you're unhappy with the job. There's no way to explain it that won't eventually create a poisonous atmosphere. If it's something less emotionally loaded, like moving to accompany a spouse or to go back to school, then a couple of months notice could be seen as a noble gesture. Any longer and there's no realistic benefit for the employer, but plenty of risk for the employee.
