As soon as you get a better opportunity. It doesn’t matter if it’s only been a week. You owe nothing to your employer (unless, of course you *literally* owe some debt as part of an agreement) and they’d probably chop whoever they want should they need to.

Hey, 20-30 years ago this may have been an issue but the workforce and work culture is changing. With newer generations coming into leadership roles, workers are standing up for what is best for them, finding a harmony in work and personal life, time off, and of course, salary.

Don’t feel bad that you have this question eating away at you. First I would ask myself which team I think I’d like working with better. If you think it’s with your current group, why not approach them and let them know you’ve been offered more money somewhere else. Give them an opportunity to match the offer you received. If they’re unable or unwilling to match, make the decision that is best for you.

Always look out for #1

I’m a female CAD employee working for a US company. I was poached from a competitor a couple of years ago and was offered more than my male colleague (US based) at the time of the offer so my boss brought him up after the fact to ensure fairness. He started a couple weeks before me. Fast forward to now, and my male colleague and I are both being considered for promotions, with me getting a higher role based on my efforts/performance, but less pay in USD terms. Excuse was location is the factor..

Am I crazy to take a pay cut to “chase my dream”? Manager looking to leave Bain - I want to do corporate sustainability - I got an offer for a traditional corp strategy job at $195k base, $23k bonus (no longer-term incentives aka no equity / profit sharing), so similar to current comp except for NAP, but am hoping something sustainability-related comes through. Right now in talks for a sustainability director role that would be closer to $160k base / $20k bonus. (More in comments)
