If you were offered a 40% raise would you leave your secure job for one that is slightly riskier due to the fact that it’s at a new company? What are some things to say to keep the doors open?

Things to consider:
1. Growth potential of the company
2. Risk vs. Reward (eg potential stocks? IPO? Huge payout?)
3. Exit strategy — is it easy enough for you to move to another company or move back to PA (in your area)? Certainly don’t want to burn any bridges while exiting
4. Personal circumstances — do you have a family to feed? Do you have enough savings in case of a layoff?

Families to feed are SUCH a drag

Corp/securities associate and lateraled to a 40-50 attorney firm earlier this year. I’m a non traditional candidate and considered a 3rd or 4th year and make $200k base. Waiting on raise/bonus info but can’t help but wonder if I could be making $100k more at a larger firm and working similar hours. I put a premium on the people I work with and have gotten a good rhythm here as well as built up a good rep so far. For reference I have billed avg. 180-200 hrs a month. Any insights?

I've been working here for about two years now, and I have to say, I love my job. The company culture is great and the people are wonderful to work with. But recently, I've noticed that my manager has been asking me to do more and more work on my own without giving me any additional compensation for my time. He just keeps telling me that if I want to get ahead, then this is what I need to do.

I'm not sure what to do here—do you have any advice?
