Career decision - Job Switch. Need help in deciding on an offer from Crayon Data as "Data Scientist"
Currently I work for Verizon, as Data Scientist with 4 YOE and have a fixed salary of 10 LPA with variable coming around 2-3 more lakhs. The hikes (max 10-14% yearly), promotions, learning growth within Verizon are not that great but the work life balance and job security are very good. Due to financial requirements and to grow in my career, I wanted to switch job, so cracked interview from Crayon Data for Data Scientist role. They are offering me a fixed salary of 18 LPA and a variable of 2 LPA.
Having this offer, I negotiated with my manager and she says that I'm next in line for promotion and can expect a 35-40% hike but that happens only in June/July & the salary changes start from September. And I asked if pay scale can be adjusted for my current role itself and she says that she can try to increase it by a little but there is no guarantee.
Is it worth switching? My primary requirements are job safety, work culture, scope for learning. Any insights would really be helpful.

Is there anything specific about Crayon's work culture or job role that excites you more than Verizon's?

Given that you're expecting a 35-40% hike at Verizon and are already in line for promotion, why not wait a few months and see how things play out?
