Depends. What do you want?

Many concentrate on $ and don’t realize that the high paying jobs outside of public are just as stressful, if not more, than in PA.

At least a small pay increase, more manageable hours than PA, not a complete dead end in terms of career progression. I know I might really only find 2 out of 3, but 3 of 3 would be nice.

I've also found it helpful to read through things like case studies from recent 4As/ Effies to get a peek into some successful thinking.
