ok so I had every intention on staying with the company I've worked for over the past few years, they have offices here in NYC so it was a no brainer for me to just make the transition with them and I've already gotten things moving on that, set to begin in August.
but what I also did was brushed up my resume a bit, updated it and posted it. I don't think it ever hurts to check your market value once in a while. to see what type of jobs you could grab IF you needed to move to other pastures. kinda like when a married woman goes out with a fitted dress on to see if she still "got it". lol.
one of the companies that are interested in me are offering a way higher salary. they're based in Manhattan. the only drawback is that its a newer, smaller company, which to me, means less stability, but on the other hand, it also means that there's an opportunity to grow WITH them.
my heart tells me to remain loyal but my brain is telling me bitch you're in NYC, this is not the time to pass up more money.
I'm speaking with their HR rep tomorrow , and doing my own research as well. imma play it cool and subtly let it be known that they are ONE of my options here. which is the truth lolz
maybe that'll get them to add in one or two more coins to sweeten the deal
imma call up bestie tonight, i usually let her toss the coin on something like this.
