What percentage of your income would you give up for a job with more potential?
I really never thought my career would come to this, but over the years I've managed to climb the ranks. But I feel I hit a wall. The company is just not big enough (yet) for any more growth. I know the job market isn't the greatest, but I do have an opportunity with a company much larger with more potential for me in the long run.
The problem is I would have to take a cut, almost 30% of my current income. It's a tough call because it could take 1 - 2 years or so at the new company to do begin real growth again. On the other hand, it's possible that my current company is going to expand eventually, but being privy to details, this isn't going to happen for 5 to 7 years.
Would you make the move? If so, what % of your income would you be able to give up for such potential?
