I’m a Senior BI Developer working fully remote ($119K + 15-20% bonus) but want to return to Data Engineering (1.5 years prior experience).

I have an interview with Disney for a Data Engineer role, requiring relocation to CA, CT, NY, or Seattle with 3-4 days in-office. The offer is $120K + 7% bonus + stock options (details TBD).

It’s a great opportunity, but relocating for similar pay with less flexibility is a concern. Would you make this move or hold out for something more flexible?

Maybe hold out

You seriously need to compare cost of living between wherever you are now with those cities. I moved from a medium cost-of-living city to Seattle and it was harsh. Rent was much higher and got us a much smaller place. We had to sell a bunch of furniture, and then buy new, smaller things. Rents in Seattle now are crazy high.

Did they require you to know scala to get an interview?

If you’re tied to your location, don’t make the move unless you really want to. In this market there’s no stability

Personally i would not take the role. Relocation+hybrid = no way jose

That’s a tough decision! On one hand, Disney is a huge opportunity, and the stock options could be a nice perk. But, the pay bump is minimal, and the lack of flexibility could be a dealbreaker long-term. If remote flexibility is a big priority for you, it might be worth holding out for a role that aligns more with your needs.

Totally agree. Its a great company that i want to be a part of but I def need more pay to even consider it and 2-3 days in office not 4.

What's the job your thinking of leaving? I'll take it.

I don’t know yet what to do exactly, but I know I just don’t want to be only writing code every day.
Tbh, I am scared. But I have set myself one year to learn something new.
I also want to go for a job that pays more (55k€ currently). I live in Paris, France, and software developers are not well paid.
Any suggestion for a career transition?
