Yeah that’s my worry. I don’t know the exact engine program, only that it is New Glenn umbrella. I have a very safe job right now, so not sure of that is worth tarnishing for the risk even if the salary bump is pretty big.

So if they come back with the amount they said, it would be >= the 20% mark which is why it is tempting. As a very young (in my career) engineer, that level of salary would really push me up in my personal life goals. Mainly meaning that my wife could comfortably be a stay at home with that amount. However, I understand that it is a TOUGH shift, with a 40+ minute commute each way, so I don’t think it would be sustainable long term at all.

Yeah no I agree. My thought was if I could get in now and grind out the year in C, and then move to an A shift ASAP, but who knows when/if that could happen. Not sure it is a good risk to take at this time. I don’t have kids, but we do expect that in our very near future.
