Job 1: High tech company, makes big money and possibility of an IPO soon. Pay is 100k. Work is not really engineering, but more of technical troubleshooting, interfacing software and basically being all around smartie pants with no real design required.
Job 2: Reputable engineering firm in power industry, will lead to a PE license. Real engineering. Pay is 81k.
Job 1 is obviously attractive for $$ reasons, but I'm afraid of losing engineering skills. Job 2 is stable and obviously good too, but less pay.
I just got my EIT so I was kinda looking to work towards a PE, but this other high tech thing could be great too and maybe I could weasel my way over to the real engineers side (not using my EIT but more on embedded systems). What would you choose? Help me pick by next week!
