Kudos on the better position and offer of promotion. If I actually get hired elsewhere the pay more than likely will be better but at the same time I do enjoy the work environment of my current company. Work-life balance actually exist and our work load is enough to keep us busy and growing at a slow rate while not burying us under due dates.

Unfortunately being a relatively small company, I don't know if its something I can safely stay with for 20, 30, or 40 some years. Realistically I would like to land a position in the public sector and work for a city.

As unfortunate as it is, that's often the most effective way to get a raise. But it's also the dumbest, because you're usually still better off switching companies at that point, as you already know you'll have to basically threaten to quit again to get your next raise.

I forgot if the article was posted here or somewhere else but it more or less suggest new employees are more than likely to start at a higher pay than a long time veteran of the company even if their experience and work load is about the same.
