Default Omfg!!!

I just got offered the branch manager position in Grand Rapids, MI!!!! I don't know what to do...

Pros

- Over 30k a year to start, plus bonuses
- Management Experience

Cons

- Might not be able to finish school or half to fall back to half-time
- Relocate
- May be set up for failure

I have been with my company for 3 years and I have my job now down to a T...I just don't know what to do

Are they offering you a relocation package?

Is this along the same career path you want?

Do you feel competent enough to perform said tasks?
