+1 on both these.

Cheers makes me think the sender thinks I'm their bud. I'm not.

I like the idea of "Kindly GFY" suggested earlier.

Im an older millennial, this sounds like a boomer worry. Answer is nothing just my name and title.

I use "Thank you" or just a dash.

Same. Such a trigger for me. Can’t stand it.

I use thanks or thank you depending on the audience and formality.

“Thanks” usually, but I also use the very old school “Sincerely” at times.

I use Cheers all the time. Picked it up from my British expat manager about 25 years ago.

I've been at my company forever. We are always stressed, but pretty informal. I have used all of the following recently:

Ok, then

Later, haters

Your sister in corporate servitude

Make it stop

I use Best
sometimes Thanks
I also use All to open if it's a group, or Everyone,
I also use Hey occasionally if I'm chummy with the person
I am also an SVP
......I am perfectly good if you don't like me based on such trivial sh&t

Thanks, Looking forward to seeing you then, Cheers, Looking forward to getting this XX moving forward, banging my head on the wall, etc

My company adds a signature block with my name, title, email, cell

Not “Cheers,” ever!

Usually “Thank you, MyName”

I only use thanks if there is actually something to thank someone for. Otherwise I just sign my first name if within my organization. If outside my organization, I sign with first and last name, org name, phone number and address.

I have a coworker who starts every email with "Hey." She is a Senior Vice President on the management team.

That’s extreme, but it tracks with modern American business etiquette. The bigger your title, the more informal you must be. VIPS always end their emails first name only with no signature. Or just “thx.”
