The focus that a firm has (let us say firm X has migrated more towards financial services) does not align to your interest (say Tech).

Relationship and access to client leadership is at lower level at current firm. As a result, the project tend to be low impact. You want to step up the game.

Money and future pay prospects.

At higher levels, the money it would take would need to be higher as you are leaving your network and brand you built. Manager and below, quite easy to rebuild that....

Hi everyone, hoping to get some feedback on an offer:

Current - EY staff 2 in tech, 75K in HCOL (not NY/SF). EY just promised PBB for staff, bigger raises, but that won't be until October.

Offer - Sr. role, 100K all in, would have to move to a MCOL, room for growth.

Wouldn't say this is my dream job, but aligns with what I'm good at, and I have been charging 50-60 every week at EY, so not eager to stay. Worth it to leave now or should I wait until after promo?
