Should I take this offer? Currently M2 tax manager at B4 based in BANW with just under 120k salary 6Yoe. The industry offer is base 30% increase + 15% bonus and 100k equity 4yr vesting. It's a SF based fintech company and the team seems great. It will be fully remote position. For many reasons I started looking outside of PA and this offer seems great. But now that I actually have an offer, I think I am a bit nervous now. Any inputs/words of encouragement would be appreciated.

Sounds like a terrible idea if you hate money and free time. Look at it this way, if you have kids and a family, you might have to spend time with them again.

That sounds great!! Take it and run!!! Whatever pushed you to look outside of PA will ONLY get worse. If you happen to hate your new job, EY will take you back. Don’t let your anxiety keep you from finding your happiness/goals/potential!

Seems like a great offer. I think you should take it. Not sure why you are nervous though. You’ll be fine. And if you ever change your mind in the future, you can always go back. Or try a different place.

Go ahead and take the offer.

Good luck to you.
