Why people on Notice periods start acting like dumbs?

Have observed from last 2-3 months as lot of people are leaving the company. After going on the notice period they start behaving very different and behaves like they don't know how this particular functionality works They stops thinking Just want to get the tasks delegated so someone else can do this. Start asking questions which they already know answer of. Isn't this shitty? I understand they are on notice so they can allocate half time for work, but in that half time people are also looking for shortcuts.

Yup, seen this a lot too. It's like some people think they can just check out and coast through, but that just creates more work for the team. At least help with knowledge transfer! 😤

Sometimes it’s because of over pressure and overload of work before the notice period. So they are doing this to avoid the same situation.

It is shitty and unethical. But if it was a bad workplace that led to them leaving the company I would consider it as karma as the company deserves it.

The problem is companies do the same during lay offs. Just locking them out and treating them like criminals

How the company treats the employee is reflected back by the employee in the notice period. 😆

It's just that the tables turn around. Companies treat ill of the employees, don't care about their life and health but only about their targets and work. The notice period is a payback time.

I am currently on Notice period and I am acting like that even though, I don’t like to. On one side, as soon as I started serving, recruiters calling for interviews has increased multi-fold, and they want to have interview slots during my working hours. On another ... see more
