My WLB (currently in the roles you described above) is excellent. Fully remote and minimal micro-managing on projects or tasks. I know it varies a lot by team and company but there is definitely greener grass to be had. Feel free to ping me directly for more details.

Any other lonely social workers in here? I mean a lot to some of the people on my caseload but that's about it.

Do you spend most of your time alone or is your social time self care for you? Just feel like I don't have a support system!

I just got an offer for a senior software developer role at $150k starting. It is a small start up with 28 people in the team and AI driven. My recent salary was $118 so it is quite a jump for me and I really liked the VP I spoke to. Very somber and smart guy.
However, I have several other interviews coming up ranging from big corporate to app companies. Shall I decline the current offer to explore more or accept it but push my start day to later so I could stillbdo the other interviews?
