Need help deciding if this offer is worth moving for. Received an offer from Booz Allen Hamilton for an Associate level Sr. Systems Engineer in Los Angeles for $135k base. I countered $150k and a $15k singing bonus and asked if I could be brought on as a lead associate since I've been a lead/manager for a while in my current company.
Current company TC: $125k in Utah.
YOE: 7 with M.S. and MBA

If you’re on the bench then no time is required. Else it’s project dependent for transition times, but no longer than 2 weeks despite what any managers or leaders tell you.
Thanks for the advice
Assuming in the US? You usually don’t owe anyone squat. I’d put in my notice tomorrow letting them know your last day will be Thursday. Offer to spend as much time transitioning anything as necessary between now and then. If they probe tell them you’ve accepted a new job and your start date was accelerated on you. Enjoy taking a 3 day weekend before the new gig. Congratulations.
Appreciate it!
Tell the first firm to push it back 3 weeks. Take 2 weeks off between work and enjoy yourself. There is no better way to take time off than between roles
I just left, took a trip in March
It shouldnt jeopardize the offer. 2 weeks is very reasonable, some people ask for months.
Thanks the for the advice!
