I am currently employed with one of the largest oilfield services companies in the world currently located in Houston. As everyone knows what is happening with the oil and gas market things have turned for the worse. Basically no promotions or raises until gas prices start rising and business gets better. I love it here because of the flexibility and how close it is to my home also the pay isn’t bad. My original plan was to stay here and climb the ranks up toward manager one day but right now I just feel stuck because I do not have much to do throughout the day and feel as though I’m not being utilized and a fear of being laid off since they’ve already laid-off a ton of people the last few months.
So this brings me to this situation, I currently have another offer but it is a financial internal auditor from another company down the street. They are going to offer 20% more than what I’m currently making but this job requires travel internationally. I do not mind traveling but I do have a wife and a baby at home which I fear this could potentially cause problems later. Do you guys feel as though this career jump is worth it? Does internal auditing provide other opportunities later? Does anyone have any personal experience working as an internal auditor? Also, should I just stick it out where I’m at instead and hope for the best?
