What are your hours like? How much do you value your free time? It is not a pure math decision

Depending on where you end up hours could be similar or 50+ a week. Some companies have very stringent expectations of no days off during monthly/quarterly/annual close. Based on what I have seen seen in industry and at clients you have a favorable schedule. Again, this is not just a math equation. Depends what your long term goals are, family situation, how you value your time outside of work, etc

Looking for advice! I was approved to work remotely but my salary will decrease 10%. I received two raises so the decrease brings me down to my previous salary. I was told that it’s due to the cost of labor in the area.

I’ve been with my company for 8+ yrs, I love my manager and the work I do (engagement, recognition, & wellness programs) but I feel like I’m limiting myself since I have the experience, an HRM degree, and SHRM-CP credentials.

Should I apply for roles outside the company?
