TFW you have been looking for a better job for a few months, interviewed for several, and now have 2 great job offers, have made your pros and cons list, talked it out with loved ones, and still can’t make a choice. It’s a nice problem to have, but also frustrating for someone like me, who looks for all the info to make a choice and then second-guesses my decision once made. Argh. Can anyone relate or offer any general advice? I need to make the decision and stop thinking about it.

Update: I decided on the in-house IT role over the consulting role, mainly because I want to get back to working in something other than Exchange administration/O365 mailbox migrations, which I’ve been doing a while now. I am hopeful that I made the right choice. The pay and benefits were similar at both, and both a step up from my current contractor role. The only drawback to the one I chose is an on-call rotation, but the other would require after-hours work, too.

@GEAUXJayna as a senior data center engineer; I highly recommend the in-house job to the consulting. Depending on the # of people, the on calls could be a simple thing.

@pendrag I’ve been told that those of us on the SharePoint side won’t have as much to do when on call as compared to others on the team, other than being the first responder to priority incidents, which hopefully aren’t too frequent. We shall see!
