Only got 3 years exp. Pass degree and no ns. Currently 24

If you were me. Will you take the direct ministry offer at at 20% paycut (cause Haven count in allowance all these) and the pay offered is the lowest end of the range

Will direct contract always be better than 3rd party.
Pay in place of prospect or?

The new ministry role gonna be a whole new industry for me also.
I'm confused. What to do. Should I take the plunge and go for the pay cut to have more prospect
Never take a pay cut. Your value to your next job is determined by the salary of your previous job. If you get a cut now, is like taking many steps back in your career. Maybe you only get back the same pay after 2 Annual increment cycle. Must think long term. SB bonus and Ministry are comparable so no reason for a cut.

If you don't like your job, I would advise you to keep searching. Don't change your job out of emotion and take a lower pay job.
