I feel so spoiled, I want to move to industry but at my salary level right now I’d have to take a decent pay cut plus go back in person. How did you all navigate that?

The way I thought of it was: I put up with shit and slightly higher pay for years at Deloitte to now allow me to afford / take the chance on a newer role with maybe slightly less pay but more in line with a move I want to make. Instead of reflecting on $$ difference asked can I still afford what I want to? If yes, it’s enough to move on.

Should I Go Back and Reneg? Recently I was offered a role as a Project Implementation Manager (In Retirement Services) .The salary range for Colorado residents was 65-89K. I’m located in NY so the recruiter said he would try to get me more. Ultimately he came back at 90K which is a bit inline with that I was seeing on Glassdoor but approx looks like I may leave 10-12K on the table. I accepted already but may get an offer from another HR company in account management around 90-100K. Need advice

I have an offer to do some consulting for a company based out of the UK (I am in the US). The job would not go through a consulting company but would be directly with the company. I have not done any consulting before so I am not sure how it works, what I would need to set up (they mentioned that I would start a LLC and bill them directly, no idea how to do that), how to determine the tax implications of this, or what hourly rate I would expect. Can anyone offer advice?
