I can take a promotion at my company, or accept the same position at another company for the same pay. Is the job title really worth more work?

That's a great question and really depends on you and what you value. Of course, don't forget to consider culture, WLB, commute, benefits, fringe, bonuses, mental health, etc.

The job title might be worth more work, but it also depends on the company. If the new company is a better company, then it might be worth it to take the promotion. However, if the new company is a worse company, then it might not be worth it to take the promotion.

If the company is offering a promotion with more responsibilities and a higher salary, then it may be worth taking the promotion. However, if the company is not offering a promotion and is only giving a raise, then it may be worth considering accepting the same position at another company.

I would take the promotion option, it will be good experience to reflect on your resume when applying for a job in another company.

A promotion means more responsibilities so it is not logical that you have an offer with the same salary, you should go to the other company because when you get the promotion then you will have a better salary.

It's sad to see people with 2-3 years of experience getting paid more than you when u have double the experience. 😄 Best part is they are still complaining of getting less. Well I guess you should never settle. New gen is giving a hard time to the experienced folks. I think this is the high time to upgrade your skills. Come out of your comfort zone and start looking for new opportunities. I think this is the best time to switch if u haven't already in quite some time.

I lateraled from a small firm to regional big law last year. I was told that my offer was commensurate with class year (5th year). The firm recently increased first year salary, with a 5% increase for all other attorneys. My original salary was equal to the new first year salary. The difference between my new salary and a first year is now $10k. I think it is fairly obvious that the hiring partner was not truthful with me. How would you address this? Is another lateral move my only option?
