I'm at a crossroads and needs some outside perspective. For some background, I worked at a charity organization as marketing manager and then moved over to retail to help with bringing in media in house and got paid more This was supposed to be a lateral move but certainly isn't as I'm doing a lot of the Jr work I did at the beginning of my career and im unhappy. I've been applying elsewhere. I got an offer at another charity group completely remote and makes little less but have better...

Cont'd. Better benefits and seems like I'd have better work life balance as well as a good team. But I'm also in final stage of interview with an organization unlike charity and retail but also remote and gives me a different learning opportunity, pays more but is clearly an unorganized company as its took 3 weeks for interview to get scheduled internally. I'm not sure of the work life balance. This is my forth interview and they wanted to give me 5 but after hearing about this looming offer they have decided to expedite the process.

I want my next move to be long term and I want to be happy. But I'm unsure of making a decision.

The reason I left charity in first place is because COVID happened and I was essentially let go.

I started at a non-profit and the work life balance is truly unmatched in any corporate/agency/tech situation.

Work life balance is better or worse at the nonprofit vs agency?

I do like the company that gave me an offer but their base pay was 80k and they went up to 85k. Is asking for them to match the 90k too much? The position is associate systems engineer.

I lateraled from a small firm to regional big law last year. I was told that my offer was commensurate with class year (5th year). The firm recently increased first year salary, with a 5% increase for all other attorneys. My original salary was equal to the new first year salary. The difference between my new salary and a first year is now $10k. I think it is fairly obvious that the hiring partner was not truthful with me. How would you address this? Is another lateral move my only option?
