Default Re: Lateral Moves

Trout,

I'm at a similiar impasse in my career. I can stay where I am now with effectively no further advancement, or I can move to another company where I'll be able to at least have a chance to move up.

I'm in the process now of doing just that.

The pros I see for you:

Closer to home
more money
chance of promotion
all direct reports are local
smaller staff
you already know the job

Cons:
fear of unknown
it's a big company

In this case, I think the pros outweight the cons.

Whatcha think?
