26 years old. Making 150k currently. Have an exit offer to be a director (medium enterprise organization) for 180k and 20%+ bonus. Is it time for me to say good riddance or wait for something better?

Currently at IBM in their enterprise applications division. Basically no bonus, but a lot of opportunity to move to other consulting partner (Deloitte, pwc, KPMG, etc.) where in the long run Comp and status could be higher.

Not close. Just got promoted in April. Looking at another 2-3 years before I see another possible promo to senior managing consultant.

Take it. You can always come back to consulting later if you want more money or if you miss it.

Go for it!!

i think this is a really nice exit opp at your level. you will grow in your new role and that will lead to more comp down the line. and if you want to come back to consulting, you will come in at a higher level with more comp.

Leaving Google in a few weeks after 7+ years. I want to leave the door open in case I'd want to come back but can't make sure about my manager, who is unpredictable & an extreme micromanager.

I heard the last managers rate Xooglers with an exit rating - rehire or regret. Anyone knows if it's influential / leads to the ultimate decision?

I was recently promoted.. so I think. The company is going through reorg and with that, the minimum salary is being pushed to $52k/yr. I am currently earning $42k/yr and with this promotion, I was offered $55k. I am thankful for the recognition however, seeing as new employees will be hired in at almost the same rate; I’m not sure how to negotiate this. I would already be receiving a 23% increase but with the reorg taking place I would essentially be back a square one.
