I think you should negotiate a bigger bump in your base. If I were you, I'd want to get to 95 to switch.
I get 25 vacation days, can work from home whenever, no set start or end to my day, got to work at 10AM today.
Obviously you're in a low COL. But if you get promoted to manager then your raise will be more than 7%. Lets conservatively estimate 12%. So your new salary as a manager is $92k. Will you be eligible for manager milestone bonus? If so that's either $9k or $18k which is in addition to annual performance bonus so that alone would meet or exceed your promised 10% annual bonus at new firm. Just seems like there are better opps out there.
@PwC 1 - agreed and been done that train of thought. I got mid year to senior and so up for mgr in December...however, I got a weird caveat from my relationship partner which was mid year promo is not the norm, it's still the exception. He said if I don't get mid year I should still stay for manager even if it's a year away. He also in the same breathe said my file is set up for mid year promo. I just don't trust the firm plus we had 4 manager promos in July and 2 mid year which is a lot just in my group.
Those benefits are unheard of
Flexibility like that is pretty standard in my area and not worth being underpaid. You'd make far more sticking it out 1 more year.
Baker tilly ^
I have a friend in NC and he was making around 78 as a first year senior in industry so you should be considering a salary of 100+ as a manager IMHO.
That's exactly what I went in wanting. They weren't willing to move - torn bc their benefits are unheard of. Vacation time and flexibility..no one I know has left and gotten that kind of vacation or option for working remote 1 day a week or working all 40 hours in 4 days.
In addition, the recruiting firm I am working with has offered to cut me a check for $3-4K as an additional "signing bonus" with a requirement I stay at the job for 4 months...and this is considered net so it would truly be that amount straight in my pocket in addition to the sign on bonus from company.
That doesn't seem worth it even with the extra vacation days. Your base is way too low.
The flexibility, not the vacation
The benefits won't help you negotiate a base increase in the future. Bonus is a soft number too. You like the offer, but the increase is only $6k. That's a tiny premium to move.
In what field? Anywhere I interviewed didn't offer flex like that
From Manager at PwC to industry I wouldn't take less than $150K. But I'm in LA so maybe $90K is reasonable where you're at??!
Do managers at PWC work a lot of hours ?
If so might be worth it.
Where do you live? This might put it in perspective.
Carolinas
Take all the factors into consideration. Less dough but 4days/1day remote?? What's the dollar value on that?
What company? ^
