Would you change jobs for $24K more per year?

Got an offer.
Like my job. New job would be similar work with slightly longer hours.
Like most of the people I work with now. Have no clue about the people at the new employer.
$24,000 more per year sounds really good.
Really torn. At a "money isn't everything" stage in my life right now, but it is something.

Is there potential to move up in your current job?
Posted on 8/17/21 at 7:52 pm to Kiner
Depends. Are you moving from the outskirts of New Orleans to California for this job?

Money isn't everything.

Define the 24K as a percentage of what you make now. Otherwise there’s no way to know the life impact

Where do I sign up?
Posted on 8/17/21 at 7:53 pm to Kiner
If I made a milli a year, probably not.
If I made 50k a year, hell yes.

A lot of variables to consider first.
Posted on 8/17/21 at 7:53 pm to Kiner
If you are currently making $24k, then hell yes. If you make OT- average of $350k, maybe / maybe not.

Depends on your current take-home pay. If it’s 50k/year, then definitely. If it’s >120k/year, then it would come down to other factors.

Exact same situation for me right now. Closer to 30k more for me. Would be losing my 1/2 day on Fridays. Starting to think that’s a deal breaker.
Love my current job. Other offer would be more hours, some saturdays too.

No, but it's a lateral move.
Posted on 8/17/21 at 7:54 pm to Kiner
depends on your current income, for some thats more then a 25% increase
Posted on 8/17/21 at 7:55 pm to Kiner
Are you going from $50K to $75K, or $125K to $150K?

Current job and potential new job are 3 miles apart.

68 to 92

If it puts you at the bottom of the higher tax bracket. Then you may consider it a wash because you will be paying more in taxew.

Yeah, you make that deal then. Of course, vet out the company a bit. But if their turnover isn’t terrible, do it and don’t look back. Especially if the other job puts you in a better place for the future (career wise).
