It depends a lot on your company, so I think your inside view will be better than our outside view. I told my employer when I went out to do a tryout with CFAR, and that went well. One reason I told my boss was that, if I were hired, I’d need to scramble to get all my projects annotated well enough to be able to pass of seamlessly, and I didn’t want her to be left in the lurch or to make any plans that hinged on having her quant around for the next month. (Hiring sometimes took a while at my old company).
My boss really appreciated my being forthright and it saved me a lot of tsuris. I think it also worked better because it was expected that people in my role (Research Associate) wouldn’t stick around forever.
Yes, not leaving my employer in the lurch is important to me, but I do feel like they expect me to be around for a while. I’m glad to hear of your positive experience.
