My current employer pays me N50k monthly with accommodation & transport benefits. Now, I have a new job offer of N80k salary with no accommodation. And the monthly estimation of transport fare for the new job would be N36k (from the N80k). But the only thing I am considering now is the new position I am offered, which would be of great value to my career pursuit. The new pay is nothing to write about, I am only considering the value the new position would add to my CV. Actually, our agreement during the interview was N80k for the three months' probationary period & there would be increment with satisfactory performance. The first offer letter they sent had N60k pay for the probation & N20k increment afterwards, which I rejected. The new offer letter has N80k pay with no increment after the probation. And, I would sign a year contract with them. I doubt surviving in Lagos with the salary. My current job is not in Lagos.

Kindly advise me on what to do. I have just 24hrs to accept or reject the offer.

It's a field engineering. I am currently a technician & now offered a field engineer's position (team lead).

Thanks in anticipation for your inputs.

If you have mentioned the type of work and company, it'll be easier to give good advice.

But I can't advice you on a job I don't know about. You are only considering the pay here. Let's know the nature of both jobs.

mention your position now and the new position

They have started shifting the goal post on you this early momo. Look very well before you leap bro. You may have money issues with this new organisation after the probation. Just be careful.

Career growth shoukd be your priority. You see that is what new offer will bring...

MrBrownJay1:

I've just updated the post. Thanks

Kindly move to the FP, CrazyMan, 1forall. I don't want to make a wrong decision.

LOVEGINO:
d person wey do u don die aswear.

I have no belief in your assertion. It's just 18 months into the career & with my skill, I believe a better offer would come soon.


Update: Offer declined.

Thanks to all.

That you're yet to start work and they're already displaying a lack of integrity over your pay is a red flag. Look well before you leap.

My dear,everything about naija job is not d pay but peace of mind.
i will advise you to ask some staffs of d company or possibly the security man,the nature of d company and other questions you feel like asking,with this,u can decide on what u want but most importantly dont resign now from your current job

Both the first and second, you don't have a job bro.

Nevertheless, I advice you stay with your first job. Plan to harness some monies to start doing something (self employed biz) but you must first remove your ego or pride. I advice you go into livestock.

Even if you like, work for life in either of the two companies, You can Never Achieve Anything That Makes Real Meaning.

Stay put where you are till you see a much better offer.

But, the truth is that , at the end of the day, you will still be the one to make the final choice, no matter what we all type here.


Goodluck and all the best.�

You get accommodation for Lagos? That 80k dem don deduct taxes. If you no chop at all, you go spend 1k per day for food. Kaja well oo bros.

Stay on the present job which offers accommodation. You can move on when you get another offer from 200,000 NGN.

we have so many engineers on this forum. Kindly be specific in areas of field then you may get a better suggestions.

Nigerians and talking vaguely
How do you want us to advise u when we don’t even know this new position and the value it adds to your CV

Then the figures u quoting, I hope it’s in Dollars or pounds

If not, u don’t need a career change, u need to change u country u are!

Deduct accommodation and transport fare costs from 86k let see how much its remain then we can conclude on which one to accept

My brother stay where you are till you see a offer that is worth resigning from your present job.

I would have advised that you take up the new job offer but I have a feeling that the new company is not financially bouyant enough to pay your salary regularly

.

Go for the new job if the company is reputable and job security is great.

You've gotta leave your comfort zone if you want a long term career satisfaction.

I'm sure you don't wanna be a Technician forever.

Accept if you want Any ways
