Changing Jobs: Let’s Do The Math
How do you know if a new job is the right way to go? If all other factors are equal, how do you know that you're not actually taking a cut in pay?
I get asked this question - a lot - because people know I can do the math. (The price to pay of an engineering degree and a teaching license in math, I guess). So today I wanted to get the article out there so other people can see how to work through it.
Bear in mind that this is just the money numbers. There is a price tag on happiness and sanity, and the following article doesn't take into account dysfunctional workplaces or job dissatisfaction.
