The new job is also an incredible growth opportunity and not something I have access to at my current company. So it’s not all about the money.
Pro
It's a win, u leavin as a winner, with bridges not only not burnt, but fortified with good vibes. And plus ur going for more money, more opportunities, more adventure. Who knows, u might be an even more incredible team
If they had to, they would let you go. It is what it is
You did the smart thing. Don’t worry too much.

Im on a similar situation but I don’t feel guilty at all in fact a little mad that they couldn’t pay me better making me leave a very nice place for money.
I have a family and things are getting insanely pricy so let me just make bank for a while.

Yeah life is expensive.
If your leadership team is as good as they say they are, they are happy for you. Keep in touch with those folks.
Why would you feel bad about taking an opportunity to substantially increase pay and make yourself better off? It's always tough to leave great colleagues but the second you didn't provide enough value for a company they won't think twice about dumping you, no matter how great an employee you were and how much work you put in.

Men lie, teammates lie, but #s don't lieeee
U did the right thang
I’m sure any member of your team would have made the same decision, and if you all are that close they will be happy for you. You’re doing the right thing for yourself, nothing to feel guilty about there.
If a peer on your current team did the same thing in the same situation with the same opportunity, would you begrudge him/her? (And if someone on my team left the way you are, I’d toast them at their going away happy hour and stay on good terms)
Rising Star
True. This is a good point.
Pro
How did you negotiate 60% pay raise? Does that include equity?
Rising Star
I’m going to an MBB firm as a consultant. So the pay raise is not really apples to apples comparable with my old job and compensation.

Money isn’t everything but you’d be stupid to not take that.
Good people understand- enjoy the monetary freedom cuzzo.
