I’ve read your articles on quitting several times, and I enjoy all of them.  Some of your posts offer advice like quitting and keeping a good reputation for quality work.

I have been working as an analyst for three months at a company that I do not think I’m a cultural fit.  I believe that I will burn bridges by quitting because of my time frame.  It’s not short enough like two weeks for them to forget about me, and not feel bitter for investing resources like they have done.  But  three months is not long enough to make a lasting reputation for quality work.  In fact,  I started off strong but recently have been having communication problems with my boss.
