Seeking for a career advice, both of them are entry level

B2B SAAS sales low base + high bonus
Benefit slightly better and bigger company
But what they sell is not what I am passionate about
Feel like I might have better job options if I stick to B2B sales side with other companies

Digital marketing agency acct coordinator about 10k more for base + low bonus
Smaller but benefit is almost good as first one
Seems like fun environment and love what they do but not sure about agency life

If your top priority is work life balance, that would be a point toward the bigger company. With smaller companies, i tend to find myself taking on a lot of hats and can be stressful at times.

Forgot to mention, my top priority would be work life balance..

I think if WLB is the priority, move to the bigger company. There's more people to pick up the work so you don't feel as overwhelmed

In my experience, always go for higher base over higher signing bonus. The higher signing bonus is how they pay you less over time! good luck

Have an offer of 190K base with 20% bonus to be a Mgr at Accenture. Reason to leave - want more technical exp before moving to Big tech and better comp. although PwC increased salary this year, it’s not in the same ball park at this point. Don’t see myself staying to make partner/MD at either firm. Welcome all suggestions on what I should do.

Parents want to send their children back to school not only for educational purposes but also for social interactions. I do understand that many children want that interaction with their friends and teachers. But I don't think it is going to be quite as rewarding as many think with social distancing and face coverings to be safe. No high fives, pats on the back, sharing earbuds to listen to a new song, or consoling an upset friend. Even facial expressions are lost. Tough times.
