I am making $60k a year at my current job and absolutely miserable. No room for growth. Boss is a nightmare. The whole team is looking for new jobs.
Just got offered an amazing job with a large company, great benefits. Offices all over the country if I ever wanted to transfer. $50k. Countered at $57k and they said $50k was the highest they could go.
I am in absolutely no place to take a pay cut. I mean I could, but I would have absolutely no discretionary money. But this is a company I would be happy to stay at for the next 20 years if need be. I’ve only been at my current company since December and I am already checked out (my last company closed in December so I had to unexpectedly get a new job and went from $42k to $60k which has been the only good thing to come out of the unexpected layoff).
Would I be totally stupid to take a pay cut? FWIW, I am an interior designer in Washington, DC and I was recruited to come to this company by my former coworkers who are now at this new company.
