$50k is a good start.

I started at $40k when I was fresh out of college in 2018, and then was bumped up to $65k when I got my second job in 2021. Promotion after that in late 2022 brought me to $80k.

To go from $40k to $80k has taken me 5 years. I think from here, though, growth should happen a little more quickly for me.

Hello Technie's,
I am in a confused state of mind with my current situation & I can surely use some advice from you guys.
I'm working with a product company for almost 5+ yrs now & recently decided to separate from them for obvious compensation reasons.
I have multiple offers now with product/service based companies.
The top and the best offer I have is from a service based organization of almost 100% hike.
Now my company wants to retain me & offering me even higher. What should I do?

Does this program also include self-study material, and the classes are just supplementary/optional? I was also looking at Dalton for self-study and Danko for test prep. Thoughts?

TIA
