Currently hybrid 3 days in nyc, making 280k, great brand on resume and pretty much can't be fired. Been hunting for fun.
3 options.
1, stay where I am
2, fully remote at 200k, job lateral but step down w firm prestige and job security
3, relo to SF at 400k, fully onsite, career step up (like boss's boss's job) at a smaller firm where I could have big impact

No kids, no debt, gf but not married

What would y'all do?

Personally, the 3rd option sounds most enticing to me. You are currently in a win-win-win situation, but you are at time in your life with fewer obligations so you can afford to take more risk, hence relocation and having the ability to impact an organization at a greater capacity. Although, it's worth noting that SF is actually 10% more expensive than Manhattan according to 2023 data....which for me would be a speeding ticket compared to the nicer weather!

San Francisco is going to be cheaper. The main difference is the fact that you won’t be out socializing as much. You’ll hang out with folks at their apartments so the opportunity to spend 100 bucks on a round of drinks is lower. You’ll find yourself falling asleep earlier too. Lots of pros and cons, but now is the time to move if you’re looking for more money.

I would pick the #3.

First off, I really wanted a fully remote work but despite of #3 being on-site, the salary has increased significantly.

Second, it's a smaller firm where you are able to make a big impact. Anything's possible. In the future, #3 might really work out well thus more salary/maybe a chance for remote work.

Third, if by any chance, something happens that does not suit you well, then you still have gained a high-level experience that will benefit you looking for another job.

Hi everyone, I got hired on as entry level sales operations role back in January. It quickly turned into sales, and eventually all the sales for the small company once the head of sales left.

But they feel that without multiple people in a sales department the title head of sales might not be the best title. I have input in what my updated position title and salary would be. What should I ask for?
