I've been working at a “mom and pop” company in NYC for a year, earning a meager $40,000 annually. To provide some context, this company generates over $30 million in revenue, yet offers no benefits, a toxic work environment, and no work culture.
The poor warehouse workers (who are mainly Hispanic) are treated like slaves and it pisses me off.
In addition, the owners (who are pushing 80) would police the office workers from speaking in our native tongue to prevent gossip.
Yesterday, I finally decided to quit after landing a fully remote job offer that's more than double my current salary and includes benefits like 401k and health insurance. I handed in my two weeks' notice, but my manager had a shocking reaction – she cursed at me and accused me of using the company as a stepping stone in my career.
“this is so f***ed up” / “You're f***ed for doing this to us” / “You f***ing used us as a stepping stone in your career” / “Personally, what you're doing is so “f***ed up and manipulative”
I used to respect my manager, but now I'm unsure if I should stick around for the two-week notice period. The vibe in the office has turned completely HOSTILE, and management hasn't addressed my resignation yet.
What should I do? Should I endure the two weeks or leave immediately? I'd appreciate your advice!
