In Reply To: The general rule of thumb is to not jump ship for less that about a 20% raise. Unless there are other factors that would make you leave. Why would you go to BAH without a pay increase? oh, and "deserve" is probably the wrong word to use. No one "deserves" anything. Its more about what you are worth and what you can get.
Message: thanks unc, i'll definitely keep you all updated ... regarding 'likewhatever's post i understand and agree with the 20% rule, but i personally feel that joining BAH would be a great career move that will definitely make me more marketable (sooner) in the consulting field. so even though i wouldn't want a pay cut, i would settle for equal pay (worse case scenario). and about using the word deserve, you are correct, i should have used 'NEED' lol ... thanks for the input guys
