I met someone through a slack group on a job posting. We chatted, shared info and this person offered to be a referral on the posting on his team. I’ve gone through 4 loops of interviews with the team panel interview including this person. I felt each loop has gone great. It’s been over a week since my final interview an I haven’t gotten a response from the recruiter, who’s generally been pretty responsive. What are is everyone’s thought on reaching out to the job referrer for an update?

Is one week the timeline they gave you for their decision? If so, I'd contact the recruiter.

If the slack person isn't the final decision maker chances are they may not know what's going on. Id hold off on contacting them @ this point.

I wasn’t given a timeline, but I gave it a week before I pinged the recruiter and the recruiter is usually responsive after a day or two but after this final interview it’s been crickets

This might seem like a silly question, but what is a slack group?

Slack is a messaging app similar to Microsoft Teams or Reddit where you have different groups and channels you can join

Any openings for Documentum Admin at pune location ?

I joined a new consulting firm and have been here for 6 months. Recently, a SaaS client (1k employees) that hired my old consulting firm reached out to me about a job opening - Lead BA working primarily to implement their benefit admin system for insurance companies. My current TC is 95k. Is it worth making the jump if the offer is north of 110k? Anything I should look out for? The client and coworkers were all nice, but I remember being stressed on the project due to limited resources.
