I have a good salary at a failing start up, and I can’t seem to find any jobs that provide a similar salary. I love my current job, but I’m worried that the company will not be able to secure enough funding to last us 6 more months.
Should I take a pay cut (150k --> 100k) to work at a different company? Or should I wait it out for another few months at my current company?
For context, I support my SO in a HCOL area and we don’t have much savings. Trying to build that up right now…
Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you!
Do you believe in the product? Do you enjoy your job? Do you like the team and founders? If yes, stay. Ask how you can help more and make the business a success instead of bailing when things get slightly uncomfortable.
I love the product and love the job and pour every ounce of my soul to make it work.
