Should I stay or move on?
Hey folks, needing to get some advice. I got a job offer paying about 18k more a year than what I make currently but the benefits aren’t the best ( just not as good as the benefits with my current company ei. 50% 401k match as opposed to dollar for dollar where I am current, 174.88 pay period health insurance vs. 75 pay period health insurance premium payment). I did the math and I may end up making maybe 7-800 more a month after taxes and all if I change, I think the flexibility will be able the same but I’ve been with my current company for 8yrs and have made the job work for me. I’ve asked about a salary adjustment at my current job and was told maybe next year, I’m not a huge fan of change but needing more money and the potential for growth with the new company is greater. Wondering if you all think moving on may be a good idea based on the info I’ve shared. The company I’m with currently is bigger in the industry but the other company is also established. I do have a job and have already been transparent about need for flexibility and the new job seems willing to meet those needs (my current job also meets my needs for flexibility)… ultimately I know I’ll be limited if I stay but it’s comfortable and predictable, the new position is not so much.
