My goal is to save 300k by end of 3rd year. HCOL. Do you think I can do it? Or maybe 5th year?

Should I stay at a company I know I like culture-wise when my manager said they will try to promote me, but with no guarantee. Or should I take a job offer I was given with a nice raise, but is in consulting at Slalom. I have not worked in consulting before. There is no travel with Slalom, but the idea of being the new person all the time isn’t too appealing. Less pay and known culture, or more pay unknown job satisfaction?

Does anyone have experience working for or using Sylvan Learning Centers?

Has anyone at their firm negotiated hourly pay?
