Antiwork

Offered 1 year leave when I gave my notice.

I put in my notice after working at the same company for 8 years (interned in college and then joined full time when I graduated). I don’t have anything lined up, I just really want to take a break. I fucking hate capitalism but work in finance so I’m basically trying to figure out how to help a multibillion dollar company make more money every day. My work offered me a 12 month leave where I could recover from the burnout and come back. The kicker is that I asked about reinstating the 3 month sabbatical program during our all hands a few months ago and the CEO shot it down immediately despite a ton of employee support. Turns out they can offer 4x that and all you have to do is threaten to leave.
