Seeking Advice on Job Offer
Posted: Tue Jan 14, 2014 10:39 pm
I'm looking for advice on a recent job offer.
In my current job I run the satellite office of an out-of-state firm (small law). I make $90K, have no boss looking over me, and have decent hours. The problem is that I did not receive a raise this year and my office, though more profitable, is still the "step-child" because it's not headquarters.
A local small law firm recently offered me $100K, with a more structured bonus schedule and "guaranteed" raises each year. My concern is that the more immediate increase in pay may not offset what I could make down the road if I build my own client base in my current job.
Thanks in advance for your help.
