So totally off the turk subject but I need logic here. I just got a promotion at work (most of you know this) it was official on Monday. I have a friend that works for a pretty big company that has a position open and wants me for it. 10k a year raise BUT I have to pay for parking and only get 2 weeks of vacation a year and not very flexible like my job now. I know it's 10k but after tax that isn't going to change my life. I am sooooo torn about what to do. I have been with the place I work now for 16 years, get tons of vacation time and pretty much can do what I want.
First, congratulations! It's nice to have two good things to choose from! Is there anyone in your life who could weigh in on this? And for me, I would not leave the job with the recent promotion and long employment. Also, vacation time and flexible hours are not to be overlooked as reasons. I personally would think twice about taking a new job to go work where a friend works, because sometimes things happen at work and then the friendship is negatively affected. Or you have to work in the same place after the friendship is over. But those are unlikely scenarios, anyway. Still, I would stay at the place that has treated you so well for 16 years!
Unless...are you unhappy at all in your current job?

Forgot to add ... Because I like to reduce things to the ridiculous: 10k raise is about $833/mo less 25% taxes is $625. Take out your monthly parking, loss vacation time and turking monies (due to loss in flexibility) and I have a feeling you would be almost breaking even.

That being said ... what are your future goals and what company offers more potential in terms of retirement, insurance bennys and matching 401k/stock options?

Good luck in whatever you decide! I support you 100%!! :D Good for you :purpleheart:
