So I’m in a little bit of a tough situation. I accepted and started a job at a tech startup about a month ago that I got through a recruiter. I loved the job I had previous to this one but I’d been looking to leave for a few months due to the fact that it was low paying and a temp job. So during my last couple months there I applied to a million different things and heard back from very few of them and after a while I decided to just go to a recruiter and get something else.
So the recruiter gave me a business ops job at a tech company, and I thought it might be a bit of a challenge, but something I could handle. My degree is in English (lol) and I had very little to no experience to do this job. Now about a month has passed and while I think my bosses are incredibly kind and patient with me, I’m fairly incapable of doing this. I know learning curves can take a while but I’m genuinely not catching onto this. It doesn’t help that my manager works in the UK (I’m in the US), so I have a very short and limited amount of time in my workday to ask questions and when I do, half the time she says she’s too busy to help and give me answers.
About 2 weeks ago I got a call from a job I applied to months ago and this is kind of a perfect fit. Not only do I feel completely confident that I’m capable of doing a good job in that position, but the benefits are much better. The job is at an Ivy League university’s grad school and one of the amazing benefits of it is that I can get my graduate degree from the school for a ridiculously cheap amount of money. I went two an interview about two weeks ago and today they offered me the job. The pay is virtually the same but the benefits of the university job outweigh this tech job by a significant amount. I feel like I’d be a complete idiot to pass it up.
However I feel sick to my stomach with anxiety over quitting this position. My managers have repeatedly stated how badly they needed someone to fill this position, got a laptop for me (but they can give this to whoever replaces me, right?), and flew my UK manager out and had her stay in a hotel for a week to train me. I could not feel more horrible and guilty when it comes to the idea of quitting when these people have been so nice to me and have put this time and effort into training. But the thing is, I genuinely don’t think I’d ever enjoy this job, or even be very good at it, if I stayed. At the least, I would always end up resenting this job from keeping me away from the one I wanted.
Is there an easy/understandable way to quit this position? If you were in my managers place, do you think you’d understand? Honestly I’m not even 100% sure what I’m asking here because I know how bad this must be for my bosses. If anyone else here has ever been in this kind of position, could you throw some tips/thoughts my way?
