Which firm are you at?

Was at kpmg, this offer is industry

From what I see $120k in Oakland is equal to $146.5,in San Fran. So it would be a lateral salary move. Personally, unless I was getting a bump, or didn’t have an option, I wouldn’t relocate.

Then whatre you waiting for? Just take the offer

So I recently left a really fun job where I was ridiculously underpaid for a very very boring job that gave me a pretty big pay rise. I thought I could push through how boring it is but nah, not really. Happy I made this choice because it’s a big client but not sure I can do it for long. How long would you give it before quitting? I’m really trying to make the switch to experiential/PR so any help/lead on agencies is appreciated 😶
