If there is room for job growth and raises in pay, then you are right. It would be an improvement. You can still keep looking in the first couple of... weeks or month at the new job too. more

I do not fully agree with all the advice. A bright young person still needs the counsel of a seasoned mentor. Youth may not consider the downside of... an action fully and can get hurt. To me, the saying " your health, your family, your job..in that order" makes a lot of sense. Most families are looking out for you when they advise and I would not totally ignore them unless they do not understand or are obstructionist. I would try to tap their wisdom. more

Jina, congratulations on landing a new job! After 3.5 years in a bank it’s not always easy to take that step to change. Even if it’s for $50 more a... month, you saw there is better opportunity for growth in this other bank which is much bigger. You can tell you family that you appreciate there concern but if you made a mistake, it will be a lesson for you but they need to let you make these decisions as every single decision in life only helps you grow whether good or bad. But you are hoping this is good. All you ask for is their support. And if it’s a bad decision, you can always apply somewhere else. It’s not the end of the world.  more

It’s your life and your career. In a polite way tell your family to MYOB. They mean well, and they love you and they might even be “right” in some... way…but it’s your life. If you think a basically lateral move in a new location will bring better opportunities then do it. more

Thank you I appreciate all of us for using all opportunity in our community in order to be want we want to become

Yes is true it is stressful but you need to follow your dreams and go for the better.

In your growth journey one step prepares you for the next one. It matters where your footprints have been. Go for the new job, it’s not about money... but about your career growth and progression. more

Unless your family is going to work for you then they don’t have any say in it. Take the new job and see what happens.

Respond like this: “I understand why you’re focused on the money right now, but this move isn’t about the extra $50. It’s about long-term growth. A... larger bank gives me more opportunities to develop, move internally, and increase my income over time. Staying where I am feels stagnant, and I don’t want to limit my future by choosing comfort over growth.” more

Sweetheart you are an adult you do what's best for you and if the new job pays more that an increase in your income and the way life is right now... taxes are getting higher so the job switch would be good for you more

Pozdrav,
Tvoja obitelj vjerojatno reagira iz brige i želje za sigurnošću, dok ti s pravom osjećaš potrebu za promjenom, novim izazovima i... profesionalnim rastom. Važno je znati da su oba osjećaja legitimna, ali da je konačna odluka ipak tvoja.
Pri razgovoru s obitelji pokušaj naglasak staviti na dugoročne razloge, a ne samo na razliku u plaći. Povećanje od 50 USD samo po sebi možda ne zvuči uvjerljivo, ali promjena u veću banku donosi više mogućnosti za učenje, napredovanje i razvoj karijere, što je dugoročno mnogo važnije.
Važno je i pokazati da odluka nije donesena impulzivno. Ne moraš uvjeriti sve oko sebe da si u pravu, dovoljno je da ti sam znaš zašto ovu odluku donosiš i da si spreman preuzeti odgovornost za nju. To je znak zrelosti i profesionalnog rasta.
Sretno

Do what makes your heart happy but for us here in Uganda when someone clocks 18yrs of age, it means that person is mature to decide on his or her own

So long as your husband works and is very supportive, one of you needs to watch over the family. If you only focus on your carrier and then family... life is going to be at stake, remember your family is much more important than carrier. Think twice and do the right thing

You do not need to convince your family. You do what you feel is best for you

Congratulations for your new job. Generally this kind of raise is not enough to switch unless you were unhappy or bored at the previous job. In a... bigger group, you may have better chances of promotion but it may also operate more rigidly. You are young and this is the age to look around and find the best fit.
You must be aware that 401K and pension benefits depend on your age and years of service. So you will need to become more choosy when considering a job change.
If you put your reasons for job change on paper, use AI to refine it and share that with your family, they might see it your way. Otherwise give yourself six months or so to evaluate. Your family is impotant and they also want the best for you. Good luck.  more

I simply can’t fathom a job change for $50 a month? Did you mean $500 per month? If this is actually the case that you will earn $6000 more per year,... then I don’t understand the family’s reluctance toward this opportunity. If it is the case you were changing jobs for $50 a month more, then this whole premise was actually written in the 1950’s. more

I'm with your family. Big corporations are never going to care about your work-life balance, respecting your autonomy as a human being, or any of the... stuff that might make the inevitable sacrifice worth it. *You* are ultimately the reason that you aren't advancing in your career working for the smaller bank. There is infinitely more learning to do at all times than we can possibly do inside of one lifetime, and I never get bored because of this fact!

I mean, if it's a miserable job for you, by all means get out of there and find a role somewhere you'll be happier because no one needs to obligate themselves to joyless work, or endure an abusive employer, or whatever other reason a person may have to feel dissatisfied in their job.

If you do end up jumping ship to the large bank though, just make sure to be honest with yourself about the things you will be forfeiting to work there, such as your autonomy, free time, coworkers who care, etc. more

In every dream there is battle so don't worry fight until you have your scar

Explain to your family that you really need to grow in your job, and the rise in the pay will help you take very good care of your family needs and... will as well help increase your savings. I sincerely believe these are enough reasons to clamor for the change of job you are currently doing!
Stay blessed!  more
