Received an offer for McK, offer letter allows me to pick between BOS/NYC. More interested in healthcare. Any tips/insight on picking between the two offices?

Both will have ample opportunity. Pick the city you want to live in

Boston days way way way way way more LS than NYO.

But Boston is an awful city, pick NYO

likefunny

Boston is not an awful city, but it is a lot smaller place than NYC. On the other hand, Boston is not overrun with rats an doesn’t smell like dirty diapers all summer. So pick your poison.

NYO if you’d like NY more than Boston (most likely will). Transferring later is a pain

Go for Boston, love the city and office!

Pick Boston if you’d rather live in Boston. Pick NYC if you’d rather live in NYC. Hope this helps.

Boston

Boston does way more life sciences but not healthcare payer / provider / services

Pick where you want to live! They’re both large offices with tons of connectivity events (but trade off of feeling less personal)

Also consider your income tax rate will be ~10pp lower in Boston… if you’re part of NYO office you pay city tax even when it’s earned out of state 🥸

Small caveat: This is only true if your address is in NYC proper (not NJ, Long Island, Westchester, etc.). Otherwise you pay no city tax even if you work in the city.

Has anyone left healthcare and is now really happy? I’m an MSN, RN with 12 years hospital experience. I’m burned out and tired of making crap pay. I have an opportunity outside of healthcare that would pay more and challenge me in new ways that I haven’t experienced before. It’s a total shift that would really heal my work-life balance, job satisfaction and budget. My only fear is that I would not be using the license and degree that I worked so hard for. I would appreciate any input!!!!
