From what firm to what firm?

Without knowing more than just "digital practice ", my hunch is that your industry will likely benefit from these times. Note how much more virtual needs are required to properly function these days.

Same situation

I’m in the same position. I’ve given this a lot of thought and to me the opportunity far outweighs the potential negatives. What helped me make the decision was asking myself this question: would I still make this move if the salary was the same? I know our situations is likely different but helpfully this provides some perspective.

I wouldn’t worry too much if they’re hiring you directly onto a project. This gives you time to make an impact. 6-7 months is a long time regardless of economic situations.

In the same position!!

I’m starting my new job next week, but my new firm’s been really helpful setting up my remote workspace and everything.. I’m hoping I’ll be able to generate value from the get go and won’t be laid off even with the virus..

Same boat...made the decision to stay put.

If I should negotiate, any tips?
