I've been working for 6 years at current employer and the last 8 months have been very toxic for me. In particular my boss is the one that has mostly made the place very toxic for me. I could make a whole list of reasons…
I am planning to resign, but I was wondering what to answer if my boss asks me: Why am I leaving?
I hate my boss but I was thinking that I might actually need a reference from this jerk in the future.
What is a good way to answer this question if it comes up?
Would the following answer be ok to not “burn bridges”: “Thank you for asking, but I would like to keep it private”.
