I’m 25 years old and got hired almost 3 years ago (right out of college) as a contractor for a tech company. I got a long term contract for a major client and have been here for most of my time at this job. I get paid $65,500 yearly and my company has an amazing 401k plan where they match 150% up to 6% of my salary. I take full advantage.
Today, my manager from the client side asked me to apply for an internal position. This has been a dream of mine since I started, but it brings me to a conundrum. Currently, there is $36,000 in my 401k account. I own $17,000, my company owns $19,000. Unfortunately, the vesting schedule doesn’t end until this coming June (3 months away).
The application is only open until tomorrow night, and I’m am really stuck on what to do. Especially because I have no clue what the new position would pay. I’d just apply and see what happens, but I don’t want to get through the whole process and then turn them down since I’d be leaving $19,000 on the table.
Any thoughts?
