So I was just offered a preliminary deal for relocation to Syracuse, NY for a year starting in February. I think I might have to take it.
Basically I will be the first level support for our software at the customer's site. I will be the whipping boy for any issues they see in the field with our software and I have to help implement any fix we can provide.
They gave me two ideas for offers. The first offer (a proven offer) is to pay for the lodging, food, and transportation as well as one weekend a month travel back to Houston. I still have my current salary and current manager.
The other offer (not fleshed out entirely as I might be the first person ever offered this) is to raise my salary a bunch and I am responsible for any expenses accrued, but when I come back to Houston I keep that new wage.
Thoughts? Should I take it? Chim is none-too-happy with this at all.
