Why shouldn't people lie? As an ex-employee you no longer have a duty to tell the truth to your previous employer.

- prodigal_erik 14y agoAll my exit interviews have been held before the end of my last day, for which I still receive a full day's salary. Typically they end with signing a termination agreement that makes me officially unemployed. If they called for advice later I still wouldn't lie, though I might want compensation for some kind of really big imposition.
- darkarmani 14y agoSo, would you expect the company to tell you about strategic direction of the company up until the exact second of your leaving? Surely, if you are expected to bare your kimono up until the last second, they would have no problem sharing all of the same confidential information you've been privy to while working there. Or is it more likely that both sides fully understand that there is an untangling and winding down of trust?
