You can always come back, but remember that a boring role is a boring role—even at Google. If you’re good at making your way around a company, do it—but definitely don’t take the client flexibility of consulting for granted

Assuming it comes with a pay increase and equity? If yes, I’ll also assume you’re just bored today so you’re asking the stupid question of if you should take it or not.

If its software engineering or product management, having google on a resume makes it strong. If it is a business support function, then its meh ....

Exactly. That's why i am hesitant to join.

Look for other jobs with a role that interests you

Google brand name with work you don’t enjoy or excel at...weak

It's a finance role

I think it is considered a business support function.

I am looking to make a career change to HR. I currently make 75K as a sales and development coach. I had a recent offer for a state government position in a talent acquisition role but I’d be taking a $25K pay cut. I am extremely over qualified for the position but it could possibly be a stepping stone and gives me the time to acquire SHRM certifications and possibly start taking classes to get my MBA. My question is those currently in an HR role, would this move make sense to you?
