I work 8 to 5. From home. No travel. So all I'd gain is a commute. No way.
If I expected a pay cut when I move to industry I would not do this job.
Do birds fly?
No, I hate doing the same "job" every day for years on end. This job is fun because it changes so much. I'd have to get a pay bump to leave.
Naw currently on the 8-5 grind, and got a raise to boot... Staff aug work sucks though
I'd need a 10 to 430 than yes
One time 10% and parallel trajectory? Sure. 10% then COLAs only (which is what 8-5 gets you)? No way. Gotta get further up the ramp first.
I'd take a pay bump to bring their competitors expertise to the table. Never take pay cuts, unless it's a non profit or you get equity
"Potential" is what recruiters like to lure the uninitiated in with. I could potentially make millions buying some guy's house flipping seminars but not really
Hoping for an industry offer today *fingers crossed* will be a very small raise over my current salary and 9-5. Only reason I wouldn't accept is I'm thinking about a school too. Either way I'll be out by June
Wake up fishes! The "standard industry 8-5 job" is a myth. Unless you want to go to industry and stamp invoices and then get kicked out after 6 months when the consultants come in looking for efficiency opportunities!
@KMPG3 agree that while most industry jobs aren't 8-5, it's more rare that these folks in middle/back office work past 6 or 6:30pm each night, unless it's bad crunch time. With our jobs, it's so up in the air whether we leave at 6pm or 10pm any given night, that the more consistent schedule is alluring.
Or if your career prospects (growth potential) are excellent.
Im in federal. Hell no! Already have decent work life balance, and actively looking for more $$$$
In a heartbeat.
Naw
In a ny minute
Sounds terrible
Not true K3, especially in Tech. Have many friends making 6 figures who've worked over 45 maybe once in the past year. Still moving up and getting promoted too
@K3 - most banks I've ever consulted or worked in most people were gone by 5 except on the rare occasion.
