Non-Profit vs Corporate.

I’ve spent the last decade of my career in the Non-profit space and I think I’m ready to jump to corporate to chase the dollars. My friend moved from government to the corporate world and her salary increased $80k. So I know mine would exponentially.

Any thoughts? I enjoy the slower pace of being at a non-profit, but there’s a lot here that annoys me as well. Every day lol.

The grass is rarely ever completely greener on the other side, but if you at least see the potential downsides and are weighing those to the benefits, you’ll probably be fine. I have changed companies just to find new and different things that will annoy me, and it helps to be paid more for them anyways!

I love your point here. The annoyances will flow but when those checks are bigger I guess they hurt a bit less huh? Lol.

Corporate comes with a lottttt of annoyances too just heads up
