As you all probably know im a project manager at MTV UK Digital and have been working at MTV practically my whole life. Its like a second home to me and i am very loyal to the place even though its not doing that well right now. I have been made permanent a month and a half ago and im still waiting for the pay rise to be agreed but it is on the cards.
My situation is the following...
I am working here in a job that i love, i am getting more experience and knowledge, however i feel like the job isnt really pushing me anymore as its just day to day projects that i pass over and oversee. There are only a few interesting projects on the horizon with re-doing the whole website which will involve a lot of work for me, however there is still discussion that this will all come from MTV US.
The second scenario is that one of the top guys in BT Vision has emailed me (he used to work for MTV) asking if i would be interested in a product managers role. This will be to coordinate all the delivery/receiving and setup of digital delivery workflow for everyone to use. I will also project manage the whole project from start to end as they are still currently using tape (stupid i know). its slightly more money, 15-30% guaranteed bonus at the end of the year, very good benefits and £500 a month car allowance. I know this will challenge me but i feel it may be just that bit too senior, however the guy i know there is confident i can do the job.
The third is working for a film/broadcast company in london as an operations manager. Its again more money, working with old MTV people that i used to work with, has a lot more prospects and lines of promotion. Its going back to broadcast and merging with digital which is what i want to be doing. it also touches on the production side of things which i also find interesting.
As the 2nd and 3rd options have come from people i know, its pretty much secured that i will be getting any of these jobs and having spoken to them, they both sound amazing but i just cant seem to make my mind up for what i want to do. I am always very loyal to who i work for and feel bad that i am even considering moving from MTV as i know i can work my way up, but these jobs are a big step up already, which i think its about time i did something like this. The other thing is that i will be on a probation period for 6 months and as i will be buying a house, can i risk moving into a job so soon and if the role is not successful or it is not needed then, i could potentially be out of work.
Eeek what do you guys think?
