When I made the decision to retire, I was ambivalent about how much notice would be appropriate. I’ve been with my employer over 23 years. I have immense respect for my VP and genuinely appreciate her. She has been fair and equitable during the years I’ve worked for her.
However, my spouse reminded me that over that 23 years there have been situations in which I was not afforded opportunities for growth because of business needs. I am well aware of my personality traits that make me less than an ideal candidate for senior leadership. If someone asks my opinion, Intendvto give it notwithstanding the perils of doing so in corporate America.
I have worked in complex casualty insurance claims throughout my career. I self describe as a clean-up batter, a firefighter, an EPA superfund manager, a windmill tilter, a master negotiator, a dump site, a litigation manager, an ear for those who are frustrated, a friend, a provocateur, an excellent analyst, a leader, a resistance fighter, an advocate for the policyholder and a career long commitment to do the right thing.
Sometimes my personal code has conflicted with the leadership of ,y company. I have refused to compromise my ethics. I am comfortable with that decision even if has cost me promotions.
I’ve refused to drink the kool-aid. I’ve been true to myself. It is time to let go of the corporate world that values profits over integrity, limits merit increases to an average of 2% despite record breaking profits, and a CEO who has made it clear he does not care if people leave.
Yes, I could work another year or two, bump up my 401K and accumulate more stock. But, I just don’t care anymore.
Instead, I’ll enjoy my koi pond, get healthy, enjoy my friends and family, and celebrate every day that I have left.
