Ask HN: Resigning from a Position

This will all depend on your working relationship with your VP but I don’t think there’s anything wrong with citing burnout as a reason. It’s hard to argue against that, you’ll hopefully not burn your bridges so have the option to come back one day and lastly you’re giving them constructive feedback. Burnout is not due to the individual, but is instead the environment they work in.

Don’t ever feel like this is a you problem, it’s not.

This may backfire if the VP suddenly gets, let's just say, "emotional" about the entire matter and then tried to be vindictive by providing a poor employment reference.

VP could nix OP's potential hat-in-hand attempt to return to the company, but she wouldn't subject herself to a defamation lawsuit by shitting on OP to outside employers -- nor would OP be dumb enough to ask her to.
