there is some cons. The pay will be about 15K more a year than what I currently make (below market value) at my company, It will be 5 min away from my home, there is some technology that I will learn that I don't have experience with.
Those are the cons?
this was my question.
So first thing... make sure you have the pros and cons straight. LOLOLOL

Yes. Prevents confusion. I was very confused at your first initial response. I was like, "Are those things not good enough"? Then, I realized I listed it as cons, instead of pros. LOL

I only took a 35% pay raise when I last switched jobs. So it might be a detriment. . .

I had a 75% pay raise from one job to the next, but really, it was more like a $10% raise, because the old job had so much ridiculous OT, I was making nearly what the new job offered.
As a consultant, I hit nearly a 100% raise from that last point...

@scottalanmiller Thanks! I'm doing some job searching right now on my computer, and now I have a completely different mentality on choosing which ones to apply for.
