Is it a terrible idea to follow your boss to a new company? She wants me to come with her into a role two levels above where I am now. I have worked with her for four years but I have never held that title before. Do you take the leap or stay where you feel competent?

If the salary is good and she’ll support and help guide you in your new role than you’d be crazy not to grab it. Congratulations.

I have learned that you work for people, not companies and not in roles. She knows who you are and clearly thinks you can do it. Also, it’s on her if she starts a new role and immediately hires someone who can’t do the job. So she thinks you can do it and has an incentive to set you up to succeed.

The worst thing is that you have a big learning curve ahead of you. Sometimes the best things come out of being uncomfortable. Unless you feel that it’ll be too far out of your depth and your boss will have their hands too full with their new title, I’d probably go for it.

Ok, I’m gonna say this. Schools should open. Now hear me out. My wife is a family doctor, she is working insane hours, she is treating covid patients, and there is a lot of days when she has to stay at the hospital without coming home. My neighbour works in a local grocery store, so he has been at work since the Day 1 of lockdown. So if you need medical help, or want to eat, it’s ok for those people to be at work, but their kids have to stay home? Cont’d >>

Hi All,

I have 4 yrs of exp as full stack developer and my current CTC is 15 lpa and notice period is of 3 months. I got an offer from another firm for 24lpa but they have shared the offer letter of DOJ after 2 months and asked me to negotiate my notice period or look for buyout. What should I do in this case? Should I connect with my current hr to negotiate? Cause I tried convincing the new hr to share the offer letter of DOJ after 3 months but she is not in the favour of that.
