At that point, you may have post-humous impact if you were eloquent enough for them to remember what you said without feeling offended by it.... but you'll probably never know. | |
| Feb 11, 2013 at 11:55 | comment | added | pap | Good answer. Like @JoshCaswell already touched on, my advice is to resist the temptation to "give them a piece of your mind". It's spite and frustration and you will regret it afterwards. I also wholly endorse the last paragraph of the answer. The culture of a company is not going to change by you leaving, it's too engrained. If they weren't sensitive enough to pick up the vibe when you were there, your leaving won't cause any deeper soul-searching. And quite frankly, why should you care? You're out of there. | |

| Feb 9, 2013 at 8:04 | comment | added | user3511 | I suppose there is an element almost of spite, born of frustration, in my desire to explain my departure. Your breakdown of the levels of frankness is very helpful. Number two seems like it might be the right way to go, although your end note about being unable to change the organization (and why should I want to?) rings true to me. | |
