I’d choose JOB B.
What?
Just posted the details below...I was limited by some character count.
JOB A
- SVP in an agency, a client-facing role
- 4-8 direct + indirect reports, so day-to-day is more managerial
- ~230k TC
- 100% remote but expect to work ~50 hrs, including some out-of-state traveling once every couple month
- Unlimited PTO
- Not many learning opportunities, somewhat boring tasks
- Average colleagues, harder tasks will require many rounds of hand-holding your direct reports
- A hands-on culture, the new boss will like to oversee the work, especially on important projects
- Somewhat a high-stress and very deadline-driven environment
- Better upward growth opportunities for titles and comps, basically a guaranteed ED promotion in 3-4 years if you keep doing good work. No peer competition currently.
I would go with A. Back office won't help your career unless you want to stick with it.
Do you have kids and/or are burnt out on longer hours?
I’d take B unless you are really driven or want to take true advantage of fully remote
Came across…should I quit my job test?
