Let's say your reason for overemployment is the money (early retirement, home purchase or to be debt free).

J1 pays $XX and J2 pays $X, but an opportunity for a promotion at J1 increases your salary to $XXX.

Do you quit J2 to focus on J1 or do you keep J2 and enjoy the gravy train?

Promotions are usually only 10%. OE is 100% + raise. Keep both

I understand what you are saying, but let's say the raise is pretty significant and more than 10% - almost double the current salary. Would you still keep both?

An agency I freelance for wants to hire me full-time. They told me for a Sr Copywriter, 100-110k. I countered with 125-150.

I also said I'm interested in a higher-level title - I currently freelance as a Creative Director of Copy elsewhere (they don't have that title at this agency.)

They came back and said yes to the title and to 125, with a 6 month review that could raise it to 145.

Which is good for Sr Copy, but low for CD/ACD level. Don't want to screw myself over. What to say now?

I have 13 years of experience in a big box franchise where I’ve handled complex returns from day 1. 30% of my workload has been 1120/1120S/1065 and the rest higher-level 1040s and a few 1041s & 990s. I’ll be bringing 75-100 clients with me.
