Need advice regarding potential job change
Have roughly 7 years of experience including internships. Have worked at Microsoft for the past 3.5 years. Manager mentioned he’s going to try put me up for a promotion to L63 this cycle. I’m a little jaded by how slowly things move here and am hoping for a more passionate environment given I’m still young-ish and can put in long hours.
I stumbled on this startup called Convoy in Seattle. I liked everyone I spoke to and thought the interview process was well thought out. On researching about the company I discovered they’re in a market with a high potential upside. I was told that they liked me and will be making me an offer.
I’m hoping to get some advice from industry peers regarding a potentially large career move. If Convoy is like the majority of startups around it will fail and leave a big hole in my retirement portfolio since I will likely have to take a big “guaranteed income” cut to make the move.
