Would you take an offer that was a level up (C -> SC) for the same salary you currently have? (Knowing you're paid very well for level and location)

Yes, only if you’re in a rush to grow ASAP OR your options for growth (pay or level up) are limited OR you’ve hit he max pay band at your level.

If none of the three, I’d stay and enjoy the good money with lesser expectations. I’d pick being a rockstar C over a mediocre SC.

So the issue is that I am near the top of my consultant band at my current firm/alignment, but way above the consultant band for the new firm/alignment. So they've offered me SC that I didn't apply for, but I am a bit wary of the higher expectations

Solve a debate for me I think my husband is way underpaid. He has 5 years of experience in all kinds of dev but has specialized in cloud computing.

Can someone point me to some material where I can read about profit sharing vs 401k. I get the concept, but I am trying to understand is 10% profit sharing vested over 5 years better than an employee 401k match of 6%?

From my understanding 10% PS is better because it’s just a standard 10% on top of whatever I contribute though it takes 5 years to vest. Does this mean if I leave before 5 years I don’t get any of it?
