At a weird crossroads.... really like my team but I’m interviewing for a position where I would make $50K/year in just salary alone in a controller position. I have second round interviews in a week. Can anyone talk me through this? I don’t really want to move to the state that this job is in, but the money feels too good to pass up..

I think levels don’t matter right now ……message from top is to help everyone to stay. There is so much work at PwC and shortage of resources….still discuss it with your partner before resigning but at that point if they don’t offer anything then you should not stay……

How much do you like your job rn? What matters more, money or happiness?

I enjoy it, but it’s still audit so it’s not great. I think money is our ticket to longterm happiness as we want to break free from the grind and FIRE

Do you like your current job $50k worth???

If you have good relationships/friendships with coworkers, that will continue when you leave.

Take the $50k raise you won't regret it

I’d pick where you want to live and then find a job. Don’t let a good job drag you to a place you won’t like. The money won’t make up for it. I waited years to find a controller position closer to home than my PwC office was. No regrets on that decision.
