Currently a fully remote Sr Corp Strat Analyst working ~35hrs a week making 130 base + 10k bonus. What should I be thinking about when deciding to give up that comfy gig for a Strat Ops role at high growth company for 140k base + 30k bonus? New strat ops role likely ~50 hrs/week with 25-50% travel, but faster career trajectory. 6 YOE and live in LCOL city if that matters.

I’d keep the current job tbh. 130K LCOL you can save a lot of money and live a decent life

Passed on the offer. Told them I’d move for 160 base + 15k sign on and they weren’t willing to do that. Oh well. Thanks all!

You tryna refer someone who’s willing to take that offer 👀👀👀

Decide if you want to stick around at this plateau with excellent WLB (would be my choice, 130 in LCOL would be good enough for me) or keep moving up with a lot more work

Think about this from another perspective. Would you sell your added time (15h/week + travel) for $10k + bonus of $20k (usually at risk)?

Everyone has different expectations on comp. The economics here don’t look very appealing considering the type of work though.

Is travel a good thing or bad thing in your eyes? Are your remote otherwise? Might be nice to have all the miles + hotel points and get 25-50% of your meals paid for. How is PTO at both roles? Might help with the increased workload

I'd stay. Job stability is key right now
