Too soon to move on?

A little background: I have been an SE for approximately 1 year at an ERP company. Paid pretty poorly, decent benefits and terrible communication/pipeline.


Last week I got a message on LinkedIn, and decide to humor the call because why not? Start digging into the new company and it all seems pretty legit. The offer is as follows:


Salary: $120,000 OTE (70/30 split)

PTO: Unlimited

Equity: 2500 Shares @ 25% over 4 years (Stage-G startup IPO's in 2 years)

Full bene's yada yada yada all the stuff you'd expect


I am about halfway through the 5 stage interview process and things are looking up.


Here's my question:


Is it too soon to leave my current company, would it look bad long term? I wasn't really looking for a new position but the grass seems so green on the other side.


Appreciate you savages as always

Nope. They are literally coming to you with a better offer. Never the wrong time for that

It’s never too soon if you’re in a bad situation.

Unlimited PTO isn’t all it’s made out to be. They are basically taking away your accumulated vacation time you can cash out if/when you leave.

Equity - you never know if they are really going to go public. Never base your comp on equity unless you’re a founder and financially independent.

But if it’s a better situation, go for it.

No. Get out, cash in, and be happier (or at least make more money to do the things that equate to happiness in your life).

do you have any PTO at your current place?

I always do a test the water thing, and use my PTO or just take a few days and try out the other job, and if it is a go...then I just leave lol. 

sounds like a better deal tbh.

The only time it is too soon is when you have to wait another couple of weeks/months for your commission. Just wait for that to come in.

If you have to move every 6 months for 5-10k more salary do it. Noone will fault you for being money motivated and going where you are valued more.

No, your next employer seems to think of it as a non issue so why are you worried
