Totally stuck and need to decide today as was offered a week ago. Normally very decisive but am totally torn and real world consensus is 50\50 so turning to the wonderful world here to hopefully give me some clarity!
Current role: company is not great but recent merger means the future is likely to be very exciting. Package is all statutory, colleagues are a real mixed bag, some really not great. Small immediate team. Role isn’t really what I want to be doing but is easy. Mostly home based and assumption is will be post pandemic. Limited progression but as a small company they’d probably create roles (rather than having a large structure with lots of vacancies).
New: very established company (global, household name). New role and sounds very exciting. Same salary but better package (healthcare etc). People I’ve met via Zoom interviews seem great. 3 days a week in office about an hour away.
I applied for the new role as things had gotten really crap in current one. Since then things have definitely improved - but for how long!
Trying to get mat pay policy for new but assume will be better than stat where I currently am (thinking about baby next year).
I’ve been burnt before by moving so that’s what’s really holding me back, I don’t want to make the wrong choice!
What on earth would you do?!
