Option 1 - Stay at current company where work is cushy, IPO confirmed, TC will increase 20% with promo, and WFH has been extended until next year. The work is not interesting and have stopped learning. I am thinking of moving to another city permanently and there is an office there. Currently a Sr Analyst

Option 2 - Brand name company, title bump to Sr Manager, work is exactly what I want to do in a major industry working with c-suite, ~10% comp increase from current company’s promo pay cont.

Option 2 will set me up for better exit ops, and WLB looks good. Would be based out of NYC, but I am thinking of leaving the city and am not sure if I want to commit to staying longer because of a new job.

My current company gives me a lot of flexibility in work location (potentially perm remote), my bosses have indicated I am very valued and have built strong relationships across the company. However, I’m also beginning to see slower upward mobility in the company which worries me. Option 2 will be a hybrid return to office later this year and my new boss seems great to work with

3.5 YOE (1 yr in consulting + 2.5 in industry)

I agree; option 2 seems like the best case to set yourself up nicely.

How much equity will you be giving up by leaving?

Then leave...? I don’t understand the IPO is the only thing that could hold you back

This is the most basic question, so yep, I’m asking you to take it easy on me when you reply. I have been practicing for about 5 years total. I have been in civil practice for 2 years. These 2 years have been the most demoralizing, unfulfilling 2 years of my life. I have been giving myself pep talks to find the “positive” spin on it but firm life isn’t for me. I know networking is key but do you have some thoughts/suggestions on how to make an exit...crying at therapy is becoming too much.

I heard that internal candidates have much lower salary ranges for promotions / transferring teams. So much so that some people will leave the company a year just to come back to a more competitive offer.

I am in the running for a 2 band level promotion - if / when it gets to salary discussions, should I still try to negotiate? What are peoples thoughts? I would be going from an entry level role for 1 year to a senior role, but I still want a fair compensation compared to other hires.
