I have been thinking about this for a couple days now and would like some inputs from you guys. I was recently offered a promotion at my current company and at the same time I also have another job offer waiting. Currently, I’m leaning toward the new job as a Financial Analyst because of the learning opportunities and stability. What do you guys think?
Senior Financial Analyst (Promotion)
– Company Size: $60-$80 Million in Revenue
– Compensation: $76-$80K (12%-17% Raise)
– Duties: FP&A, Budgeting, Forecasting, Reporting, More exposure to the leadership team.
Why I am interested in this position: This position will show progression on my resume. I was offer this promotion after 1 year as a financial analyst at this company. I could also ask for higher salary.
Why I should leave: Not the most stable company with high turnover. Anyone could be out the door if things went south.
Financial Analyst (lateral move with modest bump in pay)
– Company Size: Fortune 500 – Working in the HQ
– Compensation: $70-$74K (3%-8% raise)
– Duties: Blend of accounting and finance, some exposure to SEC reporting, admin of budgeting tools, required strong technical skills with VBA and SQL. Basically, this is more of accounting and finance support.
Why I am interested in this position: This is a big company with more learning and networking opportunities. The company is obviously more stable. From looking through LinkedIn, people do get promoted and moved up after a few years.
Why I should not take this job: I could get stuck in this position.
