Have an offer for a senior role out of PA but the promotion track isn’t clear i.e. could be a senior for 3-4 years. I feel like I would still learn a lot and shouldn’t care about title, but idk. Help!

Or you might leave in 3-4 years. It’s not uncommon to change jobs every 2-3 years in private for promotions

Not a good sign. Some people stay in the senior role forever. I would ask for the 3-5 year trajectory.

Depends if you want to roll that dice. You may not think title means anything but guarantee if you try to look for another position or jump back to PA, and you’re a senior, your gunna be getting a senior position. Maybe at best a new manager position. As well you run the risk of being too expensive for those positions anyway so up to you. You could jump and it becomes the best thing every too.

Basically they said there is no guarantee that in 12-24 months I could be manager, but the company is growing a ton so a lot of opportunity could arise that way. Just a lot of uncertainty, but the company is growing like 20% per year so I tend to agree with the potential for opportunity

I’ve seen someone leave as a senior, be a senior in industry and come back as a manager at my previous firm. It’s possible. But I agree you’re taking a chance.

My husband just received a job offer on an opportunity he is really excited about. It would be great for his career and they are giving the 15% jump in base he asked for, however they won’t share what the target bonus amount would be. It’s an executive director position, so I would assume it’s a decent target bonus, but without that in writing it could honestly be a gift basket at the end of the year. Is it a red flag for them to not share this? His total comp could be less at this new job…
