Not even a little bit. Philly has all the great things NY does (critically acclaimed food, art, experiences,etc) in a slightly smaller package that is easier to navigate and cheaper to live in.

I'm in finance/tech FPA, looking to go back to the defense industry for a 25% increase in TC. But wanted to see if I should leverage the new salary with current company to see if they'll match.

Background: got a promotion at current company that didn't come with sufficient increase . After stating my case I was told it would be evaluated next October, which is what prompted the initial job search.

Current TC 103K [88/15], offer 125k base [+discretionary bonus].
