Move cities, then you can travel back to where you originally lived

What is your expertise

Switch firms?

Or have an honest conversation with whoever you need to about the fact that you want to travel and that is a big issue for you? If the project work is there and others are getting it, you need to advocate for yourself and figure out how to position yourself for it. I can't imagine Amy decent sized firm only has need for your expertise in one location.

Senior engineer making 135k and I was offered a promotion to engineering manager after completing a development plan. Near the end of the plan and I expect compensation talks to start soon. Based on some research around Boston and my role in the company, I feel 165k plus 10-15% bonus is fair. Nonetheless, first time going through something like this and asking for thoughts and comments. Thanks!
