I'd go for it. You can always boomerang or go somewhere else to make more.

This isn’t even a question. You get your money. Worst case you’ll boomerang at a MUCH higher salary

You’re an SC. If it’s a mistake, you have plenty of time to recover.

Is it for a role you think you would enjoy?

I understand, and seems like there are some definite benefits to the switch. I was just curious if you put a lot of thought on the non financial factors this new role would bring. That being said, I could always attempt to boomerang back if you don’t like the type of work the new role brings.

Whats ur current pay?

80

Just check whats ur pay growth in current company vs the industry. Also whats the 401k match in both, similarly bonus %, etc. a lot of stuff is tied to base pay, so higher the base better it is, but u compare all stuff current vs new firm

Lastly location matters. High cost loc vs low cost

OP,there are lot of tools. Do the math for next three years and see. You will be able to take a decision. Good Luck

I currently work as a Contracted Software Engineer and I’m set to finish my contracted time at the end of October.

I definitely could use the extra paycheck to help out with my financial obligations. Just wanted to see if anyone has done this before.

Hey Friends! Looking for advice!

My wife is a Chartered Accountant with 7+ years of experience as credit manager, underwriting loans with some leading banks in India. She just got her EAD and is looking for jobs, open to switch profiles as well. Do you think she would fit in for any role here in Seattle, WA? She has been a star performer and promoted twice in the last 3 years. One problem is companies look for US experience which she does not have, we just moved here early this year.
