Starting pay for RBT’s in South Florida and NY?
I have some doubt regarding pf contribution... Say for example.. 12% of my base salary is 600 which gets deducted from my salary.. on the flip side.. the company has to contribute 600 to my pf (which is actually deducted from my salary only like already part of CTC)?. So my question again is that.. the company contributes 600 as well? PwC

There are ways to communicate both decisions without burning bridges. Do it kindly and thankfully for the opportunities provided, and explain that the other offer is more aligned with your aspirations at this moment.
Candidates decline offers and employees leave jobs all the time. It's expected and common. Everyone will understand.
So think about what YOU want and not how it affects others. Make a decision that benefits you and be kind and empathetic when declining an offer, and enjoy the next step in your career.
Good luck! You got this! 🙌🏻
Leaving is never personal. If any part of you is remotely interested/excited about the new opportunity, then take it.
If your current agency valued you, then they would have rewarded you without needing another agency to strong arm them.
Anyway, if you leave on a good note (emphasizing that you appreciate them and the role they played in your growth), then you could keep the door open should you want to return.
Agree with Strategy 1s advice above. I have gone through rounds of interviews with an agency and gotten to the final round when I decided to withdraw myself from the running because I had received opportunities with my current employer that I wanted to pursue. They understood and I remain on good terms with the recruiter at the other agency and we still check in on opportunities that might be a fit.
I would also encourage you to try to take your team out of your decision. I have also been so concerned around “putting my team in a bad place” that led me to an unhealthy work lifestyle with led me to leave that team all together - they were the best team I have worked with in my career to-date but I needed to separate myself to be able to focus and take care of myself. They all fully understood and supported me - because ultimately this is your life and you should do what is right for you.
I would also say, the biggest waste of time is accepting a role you’re not going to stay in. They don’t need a person in the role, they need the right person - so be honest with yourself about if you want the opportunity or not.
Doing what is best for you isn’t burning bridges. People decline offers all the time. Whichever offer and culture are more aligned with your goals should be the one you accept. You get one life so don’t base major life decisions on how others might feel.
Do what's best for you. If you decide to leave for a new role doing work you are more interested in, your team will be happy for you and supportive.
Ignoring the money part of the equation, which role is best for you and your career?
