Okay, DH is facing a dilemma of whether or not to accept a new job.
Current Job:
-Manager
-Salary: Low $140's
-Great benefits
-Cons: The company has been bought out by another company and the future there is very uncertain
New job offer:
-V.P. (would be a huge leap in DH's career )
-New salary: $150K
-Full medical and dental
-Cons: The company is American and is looking to open up a Canadian office so essentially this would be a start up.
Now, the REAL dilemma is this: DH's current employer is offering everyone bonuses to stick around until the merger is approved and it is big bucks: $100K . However, everyone has to stick around for 3 months after the deal is approved to get the bonus and there's no guarantee that people wouldn't get let go before the bonuses are paid.
Therefore, some opinions are needed here. Would you stick it out to get the bonus or would you call it quits to make a more strategic career move that would pay dividends down the road? DH is finding that giving up the bonus money is pretty hard...
