Name change just in case any of my old colleagues are lurking.
My AML runs out in April. And I'm not going back to work. I worked in the city and really do not feel that I can "have it all" - if I give my job the full time commitment that my boss expects (and that I would want to give) I would never see my children.
But I've made that decision- wat I need you to tell me is when, morally, I should tell my boss. I worked in quite a small team, and had particular specialist knowledge on one subject, which is getting to be a really big earner for the firm. I have just received my annual bonus, and in conversations then my boss said they couldn't wait for me to get back as they need to get started on the next stage of the project I finished just before I left. I know no one is irreplaceable, but it seems like they are waiting for me to go back before starting. Should I tell them now (and miss out on 4 months worth of holiday pay, medical cover etc.) or should I figure the delay is their own fault for assuming I'm going back?
It's a big company btw - Top 3 Global Investment Bank - so the firm can afford it. And I'm not that happy with the way my team supported (or didn't support) me when I was ill when pregnant.
