"Unprofessional" is saying, "You guys suck, I quit." Professional is saying, "Well guys, it's been 6mo and it looks like it's not a good fit, and I'll be moving on. This is my 2 weeks notice." (But be prepared to be let go immediately.) The thing is, no-one really cares about professionalism though. What they care about is working code, good commits, and if you don't feel like you can get there in this org then leaving is the right thing to do for both. Bummer for them spending 6mo ramping up a new dev that didn't work out; bummer for you you spent 6mo learning crap that doesn't matter (unique organizational failure modes scale with N! where N is the number of independent mistakes you can make). A bummer, but at least it wasn't a 6 year bummer. GL
