Is it unprofessional to inform/hand in my resignation to my level 2 manager instead of my immediate manager?












0















I'm more comfortable with my level 2 manager as he's more friendly and understanding than my immediate manager who's cold and serious most of the time. I'm afraid I'll get a huge blow back from my immediate manager for resigning after only 2 months in this multi-national company(due to emergency personal reasons). I'm wondering is it professional to do so and I won't be burning any bridges?

          No, usually it is the rule to "report" to your "reporting manager". Your comfort level does not change the "rule".



          I believe you don't have a tool in place where you would submit the resignation (I wonder why given the organization description), if that's the case, the preferred approach is to submit the resignation to your immediate supervisor, also known as "reporting manager".



          Also, plan to have a face to face meeting for the submission of resignation - avoid having it only over e-mail / portal. E-mail / portal is for the official record-keeping.
