Hi all,
I'd appreciate a bit of advice regarding careers.
I have been at the same company since graduating from uni, joined on their grad scheme and been there 10 years. Due to restructures I've been placed at risk of redundancy, there are jobs to apply for internally so I don't have a huge concern about staying, but I am tempted to take a severance package and see what else is out there.
Obviously timing isn't great, and employment market is very challenging but I shouldn't need to work for a while which would give me some time to find something else. Although no guarantees, I guess speaking to recruiters would be a wise thing to do
I know there are going to be lots of variables that influence one's decision and I can't capture them all here, but can anyone offer any advice that might make the decision easier?
I don't have kids, the growth opportunities internally aren't fantastic - the company is more mediocrity rather than meritocracy, I earn very well for my age but average for my industry and experience. Likelihood is that I would go and work for a consultancy after this (which I'm sure has its own challenges) but not sure how easy / difficult it would be to get into. Sector is financial services and my recent experience is in regulatory programmes (here and based in Europe)
Any advice would be really appreciated!
Cheers
