Would you work for a massive non-profit with healthy financials? Especially if its a 26% pay bump?

Salesforce developer here. Consulting seems to be drying up. However, I'm not sure what impact working at a non-profit would have. Upward mobility, pay-raises and the like.

Go ahead. Made the switch to end user few years ago and wlb is much better. You will have ownership of so much. Hikes will be limited but will be offset by initial bump.

Been a Nonprofit Consultant for the last 2 years. Question 1 - do you believe in the mission? If not, it will get old quick.
Question 2 - it’s large, so I am assuming it’s currently on NPSP. Are there plans to move to NPC and when? NPSP is no longer being developed so what you see is what you get. The NPSP triggers are challenging to work around with automations and have to be taken into account in a major way. (This may be fun for a dev as it adds complexity and challenge)
But honestly it’s back to the first 1. If you don’t believe in the value of the mission of the nonprofit this will be a bad fit and will wear y out down emotionally.
