Depends. Am I miserable and the new role is 5k less, doing something that’d actually make me happy? I’d consider it

But generally no. I’d only take a role for more money or a role for the same money & better satisfaction

I took a pay cut to move into consulting because I wanted to shift careers from lab/science to the commercial world... And it's a lot cheaper than an MBA, esp with the opportunity cost.

Agree with B2B Advisor ^^

What makes you even ask this Op?

There seems to be more details at play…

I feel unsatisfied/undervalued in my current position. New job would be more fulfilling and offers public pension, but it would be hard to swallow a pay cut.

Opinions welcomed:

V5 Legal Assistant here (2 years in industry, started at current firm in late April). I’m on pace for 2700 billable hours / year. To boot, that rate is going up because of all of the 65+ hour weeks lately, and the first month being billed around 40.

I was just told that I may not qualify for any bonuses because I haven’t been here for 1 year.

Is this normal? Am I crazy for thinking that I should be getting a *significant* bonus for all of the crazy hours and deadlines?
