The new company which offered me also deal with biomedical equipment but I was offered as Engineer. Now basic + allowance is $4000/mth. Total bonus about 2 to 2.5 mths.
I did some calculation, the basic pay has risen up by 17%. The allowance in new company is $200 more too. There is also overseas training opportunity in new company. How is the offer? Low or high at my age and exp?

I think that biomedical equipment is a good niche field..
basic pay increment is good..
in terms of ur experience versus market standard, some forumers here have quoted high (80k) for 4 years exp engineer, some have quoted lower..
i think u should go for it, sometimes pay stagnation is the problem that makes us leave (not the job).. it is a fact of life.. its just a matter of time before we take the jump.. unless ur current role has significant benefits for u to stay..
biomedical field has good competition for employers to hire engineers.. so fret not!
all the best..
