This question resonates with me because I am a junior dev (bootcamp background, 20 months into my career), and am currently on the verge of switching jobs. I am very thankful to my current employer for hiring me and giving me a shot to grow into this career and treating me extremely well in the meantime.
The thing is, they pay below the market rate, my wife is pregnant and not very employable because she doesnt speak the local language, and the 40% pay increase would allow me to get the mortgage to buy the apartment we live in. Otherwise we will be priced out of living in the city. I just feel really guilty, but my responsibility to my family exceeds my commitment to my employer...
