Chances are you’ll need the reference, so now is the time to really suck up. Just kidding, but keep your opinions to yourself and continue to do your best work. You’ll need the reference when you’re gone, and you want it to be a good one. Depending on the circumstances, you may be asked to work for your former employer as an outside consultant, but if you’ve burned this bridge it’s a sure thing you won’t.
