Here's my situation. I'm currently making 70k as a web developer. The commute is great and I get a lot of vacation time. The only problem is I'm bored most of the time - I want a challenge.
I have a company who is most likely going to offer me a senior level web developer (asp.net/sql/ajax, etc), but they're 1.5 hours away. The benefits are about the same but I'd have about half the vacation time. I would be working from home most of the time, but the goal would be to eventually move closer to the area. We were looking to move anyway, but in a year or so from now, so this would move us up schedule.
Given my current salary and the implications of taking this new job, how much should I negotiate for? 30% increase? 40%? Is it fair to say that the low-to-mid 90k range would be considerable enough to go through with this? Thoughts? Thanks.
