I’m starting a new job tomorrow as a software engineer, but I just received another offer that came in over the weekend. I had interviewed for this second position over a month ago and didn’t hear back until now. The catch is that I already signed for the first job, but the second offer pays over $50,000 more. I'm feeling conflicted about how to handle this situation because I’ve already had my laptop shipped and I have an onboarding session to attend. It feels wrong to quit on my first day, but I also know that companies can let employees go without a second thought. I'm seeking advice on the best way to navigate this dilemma.
