I’d stay.

Startups can be very volatile and lead to burn out even quicker. If you like the agency you’re at now and are doing good work, stay. Talk to someone about the raise conversations you’ve had with your old boss.

Stay to get the position at the big shop. You will be stuck at least another year with current salary at startup, and even if a lot of bigger places won’t consider hiring at your new title because it’s a startup, more likely would if you got the position at a known agency. Use lack of leads as reason you need the promo THEN find new position

Currently working on a three person team in a larger GC group. I lateraled from a different group that did not pay attorneys on an attorney scale. I’m stuck in my old pay scale but have gotten promotions and raises quickly with more on the horizon. A recruiter reached out with a new role for 2-2.5x more than I currently make doing something similar. I love my company and the people I work with but the money isn’t there. Is it worth trying to get a counter to stay if I get the bigger offer?

Anyone have advice for advancing in your current role? My co-worker was hired in at manager level but somehow “proved” he was actually doing director level work and got a title promotion and salary increase in less than a year.

Any advice would be appreciated!
