I'm a director and have hired my own team members. I sure think it's better.

Quitting/Fired would only come up in an interview and in that scenario, quitting is superior because you can clean it up... "Yes, I left the position to do X (some positive action that makes you a better fit for the potential position.)
Always clean it up.
Always clean it up.

@Magicianzini Agreed spin it into personal or professional growth or something

Don't lie! Just write on your resume that the company didn't align with your beliefs. Tell them that you are looking to join a company that aligns more with your career path. That way if they call and the other company says that you quit, they will already know why.

Generally, yes. Unless you quit because you couldn't be bothered as opposed to were let go because of position redundancies after a merger. There are exceptions.
That said, the best method is to get your new job before you leave the old one. Jobs are like credit, in that people are more willing to give you a job if you already have one in good standing. It's even you need the job that you don't look as appealing.

I was nearly fired once for not leaving the building during a fire drill. I was on the phone with an important client and we were in the middle of a pivotal discussion. I suspected it was a drill and my office was only a few yards from an exit just around the corner.
In a meeting with HR and my boss as I was getting an ass chewing I told them fire me if you want but I'm taking this account with me and walked out. They didn't fire me.

Definitely looks better. Everyone understands getting fed up with a job. They run their course and we move on.

@ScreamingFox Just wish the job market wasn't so bad.
ScreamingFox · 41-45, F
@separatetheheart It sucks out there right now.

@separatetheheart But..but..MAGA
Yes, it’s better to leave on your own terms than be kicked out.

@CGS1984 That's what I was thinking.

Sometimes it's better to just walk away.

@Thevy29 as much as I would have loved to have done that I couldn't bring myself to do that.
Just put "objective completed with extreme prejudice"

Did you have a legitimate reason why?
