I took a solid haircut. My TC now is around what my base was before I left S&. But I also understand that S& base is crazy high and so I’m kinda like eh I guess this works.

Kind of the opposite problem. I'm looking at Deloitte and BAH roles that seem to be paying 20-30k less with similar responsibilities as my current company. My current employer is known to be at the lower end of the industry, so I'm at a loss tbh.

I’m at Deloitte. What jobs here pay that low outside of USDC?

My company went toxic in the last couple months. Chose me and started interviewing.

Meanwhile I just received a Director offer for a company with a 29% pay bump July 1. If Amazon or any other FAANG/large co gets back to me, is there an acceptable way to not burn bridges with new job and accept or delay start date with FAANG? Or fuck it just hop?
