Advice needed regarding changing jobs?
I am a senior sales manager for a hotel chain. I have been in my current job for a year, and I'm not unhappy here. However, recently, we have had a change in management, and some people in the department feel that their jobs are not secure.
Meantime, a gentleman I used to work with has become the Vice President of a competing hotel company, and he called to discuss a job at one of his hotels with me. What they offered me amounts to a 10% increase in salary, and having the security of being chosen for my position by one of the senior executives of the company, which I believe would give me job security.
That said, it's hard to decide whether or not to leave. The extra money, and the job security are the things that would make me do it. The loyalty to my current employer is what makes me hesitate. The job duties are virtually identical, and the new hotel is even more upscale than where I am now.

If you trust the person who gave you the employment opportunity, and are insecure about staying at the job you have now, I think I'd go for a change. It's better to know you're wanted because of the good job you do than just having someone see how you work for a while.

You don't sound happy at your current job, so I highly recommend you check out this potential new position.
Set up a meeting with your friend at the competing hotel, get a tour, meet the people you will be working with to get a feel of the working environment and culture.
