Last night, the former colleague Xiao Xiao called and two companies extended olive branches to her at the same time. One was an innovative company, and she was very optimistic about the prospects of the platform; one was the top three in the industry, and the position and salary were much more attractive than the previous one , She was very entangled, and rationally told her to go to the former, but after all, a girl may have to plan to prepare a baby soon, let me analyze it for her and give some advice.

In fact, nine out of ten professionals will ask this question: Should we pay more attention to the scale of the company's platform or the salary of the position? There are even jobs. Namely: platform, salary, position, how should we sort? Before answering this question, you need to ask yourself two questions.

First, why do you want to jump ship?

The answer to this question can help you understand your current job situation so you can better analyze the current situation. What's wrong with the original job? Is reaching the career ceiling no longer able to support your ambitions and cannot be changed? Or is it just that the salary is too low, it does not match your efforts and there is no possibility of salary adjustment? Are you sure there is no way to change the current status of work?

When you get a clear affirmative answer to the above question, then think about the second question.

Second, is it really better than before after switching jobs?

This question is related to the reason for the job-hopping mentioned above. If the job-hopping is just because of the salary, is there any other price to be paid after the job-hopping? For example: narrow promotion space, longer working hours, more environmental problems, etc. When the price paid for these is worth it, then you can change jobs. By the same token, when you're jumping ship because the company's growth is limited, you still need to assess other issues with the new company.

In general, these issues include, but are not limited to: job compensation, company prospects, promotion space, job content, working hours, working environment, training benefits, leading colleagues….

When your answer to the second question is still yes, then start working on how to change jobs! As for how to choose? I suggest you choose based on your age, where you are in your career, and your family situation.

  1. In the early stage of the workplace (newbies in the workplace, fresh graduates, and those who have not found the direction of the industry within three years), your selection order is suggested as: Platform > Career > Salary ===================================================================================================================================================================================================================================

The preferred platform, and finally consider the salary! (Very important! Knock on the blackboard)

There are four reasons:

The industry is selected right, less struggle for at least ten years! As the saying goes, men are afraid of choosing the wrong career, and women are afraid of marrying the wrong man. In fact, now both men and women are afraid of choosing the wrong job. The first job is really

In the early days of the workplace, you must carefully consider your preferences, majors, conditions, industry prospects, etc., choose an industry that suits you, and stick to it. If you want to know more, you can take a look at a micro-headline I posted last week (May 18, 2019). There are three industries in the top three and bottom three of the average annual salary in 2018, for your reference when choosing an industry or even applying for a major. .

I have seen too many people in their 30s who have changed careers in the workplace. The previous industry accumulation has no effect and needs to start from scratch, but people are already veterans in the workplace, and they are especially unsuitable to start from the basics like novices in the workplace. Start by making yourself quite passive. Therefore, I advise you who have just entered the workplace to cherish the current situation of a blank sheet of paper, choose a good platform, and choose a good industry. As for those "making money is the last word", it is really not what you value most in the past one or two years. Success is such a truth.

Just to give an example, those born in the 1970s and 1980s who chose the real estate industry basically had no worries about food and clothing and had a successful career. Are they indeed better than their peers in other industries? I don’t think so, the real estate industry just lets their talents show.

A company with a large platform and a large scale has relatively more resources and relatively complete systems and systems. You have the opportunity to be trained in a standardized process, and your knowledge system and business system can be systematically improved. These ways of thinking and work details will be of great help to you in your future work and will benefit you a lot.

  1. Things gather together, and people are divided into groups. In a good platform, the number of outstanding people is definitely more than that of ordinary enterprises. Therefore, you have more opportunities to work with them, and you will learn a good way of thinking and your vision will naturally be different. There is also the opportunity to accumulate a certain amount of excellent contacts, which is very beneficial to personal career development in the long run.

  2. Low salary is temporary. As long as the company has a large platform and good development prospects, you should choose to exercise ability, because knowledge and skills are hard to buy. Moreover, large companies and platforms are relatively transparent and open, and they all act according to the rules. There are rules to follow in everything, and there will be no hidden losses. Your salary will definitely rise.

  3. In the golden period of the workplace (workers between the ages of 25 and 40), your selection order is suggested as: Position > Salary > Platform ====================================================================================================================================================

The age of 25-40 is the golden age of the workplace and the most important period of life. Basically, you have to complete several important tasks in life, such as marriage, childbirth, and promotion. After the industry is basically clear and clear, promotion and salary increase is a direct feedback to affirm your achievements on the platform.

Moreover, every social person needs to survive, which is the premise of all needs. Position salary directly determines basic living security and quality of life, quality of life determines where you stand, and location determines how many directions you can choose from, including vision, friends, connections and opportunities, and even living habits and health.

Therefore, I think that the position is the most important issue you should consider at this stage. As for the salary that ranks second, it is actually complementary to the first. The salary will naturally not be low if the position is high. Even if different companies have different salary systems due to their size, income status, and years of development, in the same industry, this difference is not too big, at best, it fluctuates by about 20%.

Therefore, at this stage, you should think more about the extension of the golden period of your career, and aim to improve your ability, so that you are still the irreplaceable industry elite when everyone is entering a period of professional decline, with high salary and enjoyment. With a longer career golden period than others.

  1. During the recession period of the workplace (workers over the age of 40), the suggested order of your choice is: Salary>Position>Platform =============================================================================================================================================

It is not easy for people of this age to change jobs, unless they are elites in the industry. Don't be proved by the deeds that Chu Shijian took over the Yuxi Cigarette Factory when he knew his destiny, founded Chu Orange at the age of 75, and Ren Zhengfei founded Huawei at the age of 43. Please note that they are starting a business, not a job hopping! Moreover, they have been on the road, and they have accumulated more than N resources and contacts to create miracles.

Back to the topic, as a professional, 40 years old is a threshold. If you are not a special elite in the industry, generally speaking, choose a job with high salary, without considering the platform, make good use of your own experience and resources, and be a role model for the company Just fine. Some people will definitely ask, where should the position be placed? Of course, they are the second, after salary and before the platform. After all, with nearly 20 years of work precipitation, more than 40 people in the workplace are generally in middle-level or high-level management positions, and their positions will not be low.

  1. During the special period of the workplace (women preparing for pregnancy, mothers, special circumstances in the family, cross-city workers...), your selection order is suggested to be: Salary>Platform>Position =====================================================================================================================================================================================================================

Workers in this period are generally faced with financial difficulties (if the family does not have such difficulties, please do not follow this suggestion, but refer to the first three suggestions). Salary will become a top priority to change your status quo, and to maintain this state, it is recommended that you consider stability and salary.

So, my advice to my former colleague Xiao Xiao is to go for the latter. Because she is nearly 30 years old, having a baby is her life plan for the past three years. It is very beneficial for her to go to a relatively stable and high-paying company for the past three years. If there is a real need for a career, after the baby is born, it will be stable, and it will not be too late to work hard. After all, the second company is also in the same industry and has not changed careers.

The situation of the special period of occupation is different for everyone and cannot be generalized. It should also be selected based on each person's values, each person's orientation, the degree of special events they are facing at the moment, the length of the special circumstances, and so on. The key is to see what you value! If you're having trouble and believe me, you can also PM me and I'll try my best to give some advice.

In any case , good career prospects are not all jumping out of job-hopping. If you do not carefully evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of job-hopping, then blindly making decisions may make your career prospects more and more blurred.
