Should I jump to another firm?

Current firm at SC level - 105k base, typically 10% bonus. Great WLB at the moment as I'm staffed on a very lax project that will run through 2022. Enjoy working with my team, no complaints.

Another firm I'm entertaining for an SC role - 5k sign on, 130k base. They're ramping up their practice so are looking for people with my specific skillset. Have heard good things about their culture but I take word of mouth with a grain of salt.

Salary bump worth the jump?

I feel like culture and WLB are not the same thing. If you value the WLB, stay where you are. If you are fine risking the WLB for guaranteed money, jump.

No I'm not

If you like the firm you’re at, why not use the offer to bump up your salary? Surely better to stay where you like the team and WLB

Yeah this. Sounds like you want to stay, so see if you can get a comp increase with your other offer

Is this slalom?

Hello Fishes,

I have 2 offers in hand currently -
1. CGI - 25LPA +1L JB
2. Neev systems - 23LPA (5%VP)

Neev systems is ready to negotiate it with CGI. And both companies have their own benefits.

Neev's hike is good compared to CGI(almost double) & CGI have some additional perks like cab facility, Creche allowance, mobile, internet bills reimbursements and additional 5% shares.

Both might have similar WLB (12-9pm).

My DOJ is tomorrow, unable to decide between them. Pls help me!!
