What do you do, when a recruiter throws you a PD or two and says the total compensation is ~2-3x what you’re on now?! 🤔

@prologic@twtxt.net you take a look at it, see if it is a good fit, ask the headhunter more details about it, and the company they represent for this hire, bring the results clearly, simply stated, but without missing any information to your CFO (AKA wife), and then arrive at a decision as a family.

Don’t let the temptation of more compensation be the driving factor.

@bender@twtxt.net Haha 🤣 Spoken like someone that’s done this before 😅

@prologic@twtxt.net I couldn’t have phrased it any better than @bender@twtxt.net. :-)

Twice or three times the money as before sounds a bit suspicious to me. Of course, I could be wrong, but I always was under the impression, that your last jobs weren’t all that badly salaried. If the new offer is really paid this highly, it might be a shit job. For me, money isn’t everything, I’d rather opt for a lower income where the job is fun than hating to go to work every day. But if the new job ticks all boxes, go for it. :-)

Also: Consult your pillow, don’t rush it.
