After moving to an internal consultant role that really doesn’t travel, I kind of miss travel. I like having the consistency, sleeping in my own bed, and weeknight activities but miss the act of traveling, new sights, team dinners, weekend alt travel, and points. Anyone else experience this or am I crazy?

You're not crazy, I've always loved traveling for work! The perks of traveling (new places, team bonding, points!) are hard to replace. But the stability of being home is nice too. Maybe mix in some personal travel or find ways to keep things fresh locally? Do you have any flexibility to add occasional trips back into your role?

Being home definitely is nice. Unfortunately work trips are probably a no for at least while but I’ve been doing some more weekend trips (which is not as cool on your own dime). I’ve been trying to do more locally in the evenings after work. I’m sure when I have kids I’ll grow to appreciate it more!

Ahhhh I would love to not travel!! I've never really enjoyed the 'perks' of it...but maybe I'm the odd one out

Yeah honestly the perks were what made it worth it for me. I think I’m probably more the odd one for that though 😀

Should I Go Back and Reneg? Recently I was offered a role as a Project Implementation Manager (In Retirement Services) .The salary range for Colorado residents was 65-89K. I’m located in NY so the recruiter said he would try to get me more. Ultimately he came back at 90K which is a bit inline with that I was seeing on Glassdoor but approx looks like I may leave 10-12K on the table. I accepted already but may get an offer from another HR company in account management around 90-100K. Need advice

I’ll of course prep for the interviews but am afraid to burn potential bridges if I ultimately decline because I’m still figuring things out.
