Can You Accept A Job That Pays Lesser Than Your Previous One? by chocolateme(f): 8:30pm On Aug 30, 2016 |
Lets say you earn 90k per month in your job even though you hardly find peace, rest of mind and motivation or even passion for the job, then another opportunity comes where you found out that all you ever wanted in keeping up with the pace is in it only that they will be paying you 80k. Thats 10k less of the current one but there are big opportunities of getting promoted as you put more effort in the job. Will you take take the latter or go ahead with the former? 2 Likes |

I've done it before. Sometimes you get to a certain stage in life where fulfillment is more paramount than money. 30 Likes 2 Shares |

I have gotten like 4 jobs in the last one year (including from the Efficiency Unit of the FMF - which is on recommendation) but inability to match my pay stalled all. At this stage, I cannot accept a job that pays less than my current one, except it's involuntary (i.e I badly need to leave), a position I'm not in now. 5 Likes |

As much as peace is important, challenges are the tools that makes us stronger. You deserve better. Your new place might not give you that desire comfort you need. So buckle up and AIM higher. |

Yes you can. At times we accept job because there is no job. If the job coming your way now is within your field and its what you want (passion) and interest, getting fulfilment and nature of the business are what can make you go for a lesser paid job. Distance, transport fare and stress can also put into consideration. |
