Should You Take a Higher-Paying Job? When More Money Is the Wrong Career Move
The Walk-Away Number: Salary Negotiation From Strength by TJ Walker
Episode notes
A higher salary isn't automatically a better career decision. Sometimes the strongest negotiation outcome is recognizing that your current job is worth more than the offer in front of you.
In this episode of The Walk-Away Number, TJ Walker examines when changing jobs for more money may be the wrong decision.
