Go for it or Walk away? - UPDATE

I think I know the answer to this but I still need to hear it.

I'm 8 weeks pregnant and was looking for a job aggressively before finding out I was pregnant. My old boss just called me with the inside track for a new job. Would you pursue it or walk away?

I can't emphasize enough how much I HATE my current job situation and we're at the point that HR is going to need to get involved. I have not come out with my pregnancy at my current job yet.

UPDATE

So another job that I had interviewd for before I found out I was pregnant just offered me the job. It's $4k less than what I make here but 3 days in the office, 2 days from home.Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon I think I will take it.

I'd go for it. Are you planning to return to work after having the baby? If so, then go ahead and go for it - but be upfront about the PG and after. Good luck! No point staying miserable if you don't have to.

Re: Go for it or Walk away?

Will it be working for your old boss directly?

No it wouldn't be...it would be working for someone she highly respects though.
