Trying to get to know the community a bit more.

If you want to share figures (you don't have to) you might probably want to use a throwaway account, better safe than sorry.

I have a job in an American tech company. I'm paid Silicon Valley entry level wages which easily puts me in the top 10% earners in my country.

I've been at this job for 5 years. I'm not learning or doing anything new, I lost my favourite teammates in layoffs, I don't respect my company and I'm tired of having 8pm meetings with the US west coast.

I've bought my apartment now, so my living costs are about to go way down, and I'm being offered a giant severance package if I leave now, no severance if I quit at any other time. Now's the time!
