How do I approach going back to an old job? I still have contacts and they are interested in having me again. I want to get the right comp and bonuses and not burn the bridge.

Sounds like you’ve already approached it.

Why did you leave the first time? What makes you think that won’t be a reason in the future as well?

Just be clear about what it would take to come back and make sure they fixed the source of your problem.

Who did you reach out too / how’d you know they were open to you coming back?

The general rule of thumb for a mortgage is 28% (primary residence) of gross income. My firm switched up their process and now instead of nice size raises it’s large bonuses. So getting increasing my gross income doesn’t really change unless I include my bonus which is obviously a variable. Is their a recommended approach for these scenarios? Maybe use agi on tax return instead of gross income?
