Being Laid Off but offered another job at lower salary
Asked on Jan 28th, 2015 on Labor and Employment - Georgia
More details to this question:
I am being laid off and been at the company for 15 years, I make a 6 figure salary and was recently offered another position within the company for less. I will get a severance if I leave but is it wise to stay and take a salary cut and loose severance ?

The answer depends on whether you need the job more than you do a severance check, and how quickly you think you can find a new job paying the same amount or more. If you are not sure. it is far better to remain employed, even at less money, while you are looking for a new job.
