Farrell -
Since you work for farmerinthedell, I'd like to ask a few questions.
After interviewing with them a few months ago, getting a job offer, but having the job offer rescinded due to a hiring freeze, I got a call from farmerinthedell last week. The recruiter is still interested in having me there.
I have a few worries about farmerinthedell.
1) This is part of farmerinthedell nosticwall. They were acquired about 3 years ago. I found that, when I was at a company that had been acquired by Macrosoft, after about 3 years was when the culture and company started changing, for the worse.
2) The management at this unit is not as streamlined as my current company (forcesales). Thus, I expect that there will be poor decisions made at some point and therefore I expect that there will be more over-time and higher stress, and possibly worse job reviews.
3) My current company has a lot of perks, including paid volunteer time, great benefits, and bonuses. I am assuming that, during this difficult transition for farmerinthedell, such things will not be available at farmerinthedell.
4) I'm in the middle of a big project at my current company, and I don't want to feel like I'm abandoning them in the middle of the project.
5) The tech boom may be winding down within the next couple of years. Thus, I may get "stuck" at farmerinthedell; plus, I'm getting older, and finding another position may become more difficult a few years down the road.
Thoughts?
