I recently faced a tough decision after being laid off last year, which was quickly followed by a cancer diagnosis. After six months of chemotherapy, I'm grateful to say I'm now in remission. On my last day of treatment, I received a job offer that, while less than my previous salary, provided some much-needed stability since my partner is a stay-at-home parent and we were running low on savings. The job is fully remote, has a relaxed atmosphere, and allows me to spend more time with my family, which I value greatly. However, there's no room for growth in this position, and I'm already at the top level. Before accepting this job, I had interviewed for another position but thought I'd been ghosted. To my surprise, they reached out recently for a final interview, and I ended up getting an offer from them as well. This new job pays $70k more, is also fully remote anywhere in the US, and includes free cancer care, which is a significant benefit considering my health history. However, the role comes with high stress, long hours, and heavy meeting schedules, which could be challenging given my ongoing fatigue and joint issues from chemotherapy. Now I'm torn. The new job could provide financial security and health benefits, but it might also jeopardize my well-being and time with my young child. I’m considering whether to stick with my current, more manageable role or take the risk for the potential rewards of the new position. I’m reaching out for advice on how to weigh these options and whether I’m missing any important perspectives.
