I recently interviewed for a new position within my company about three weeks ago, and I felt that the interview went really well. I even heard from some colleagues that I was the top choice and that HR is just finalizing the offer. This new role would come with a pay increase, which is tempting. However, I've got some serious reservations. The team I would be joining has a reputation for a toxic work environment and a questionable culture, which really worries me. Currently, I'm in a blue-collar job that I absolutely love. I enjoy working with my hands and being active, but this new position would be a desk job, and I have to admit that the thought of going back to that terrifies me. I've done desk work before, and it was not a good fit for me. Now, I'm at a crossroads and could really use some advice. Should I take the offer for the higher pay, or stick with what I know and love, despite the potential for career advancement? I know some people think that a toxic work environment isn't worth the extra money, and I have to agree with that sentiment. I just don't want to miss out on future opportunities within the company either.
