The feeling of getting 30% paycut is really lousy if you will to experience it yourself. It is like the company is taking advantage of your unemployment status to its own benefits. Do you think you will even work long there if the candidate accepted the offer?
Earning a family income of $125k pa is decent. Since you have no pressing issue wih your home mortgage and living within your means, there is no pressure for you to earn a high income of $90k pa. You can always leave later if you find a better job. Why did you leave your previous job?
