How big of a salary would it take for you to be at a job where there is not a lot of room for growth? Currently making 95k with 4 YOE with not a lot of upward potential but extremely decent work-life balance with basically 40 hours of work a week max. I enjoy the extra time but feel like I’m wasting my time. Any thoughts or advice?

Sounds about right

I agree with SA1, you’re too early in to coast. 95k sounds like you’ve stayed at the same job for 4 years. There’s other jobs with good WLB and you could easily get 30%+ by switching

Hello! Looking at an opportunity with established startup in UK that's just been acquired by a large co. I'm US based and my salary is around $250k (NYC) -I've been asked my expectation without the startup giving me a range to work from (though I've asked). I'm not sure how to reply to them because I have a feeling that my requirement may be out of their range and while I don't want to undercut my value, I also don't want to be cut out of the process because it's an interesting co. Any advice?
