Vesting date is Nov 20. The new company has only two possible joining date of either Dec 2 or Jan 2. TC:365K
Why does this question sound too stupid?
Wait the problem statement is missing data about vest date. Wtf?
You didn't tell us your vest date. Hard to answer without that.
Updated post with vest date information.
Why can’t you let it vest and then give notice and still see if you can join on dec 2
don't quit until vested. 1 week notice is fine if not incredible.
Start Jan 2. You can give the full two weeks notice, which is good form in general. It also means that you don't need to deal with trying to get the hang of a new job over the holidays when people are out and you're out and whatnot.
Why work only on base salary when you could be making more the whole month? Also earlty Dec is a great time to start new job, you get a lot of time to ramp up.
Notice on June 20 afternoon, join on Dec 2. You are eligible to rehire if you gave more than a week of notice.
Always after vest. They can let you go prior to vesting, so why risk it?
Give notice after vesting
Yeah, until the money is in your bank account, nothing is for sure.
Legally you are an employee until your last date, vesting will execute for all eligible current entitled staff on the payroll on the vest date.
