Galaxy5 beat me to the PS issue
As mentioned, seniority is everything.
But think about this in the hypothetical delaying a class date by a month or 2 and that bonus as far as money goes;
Taking the earlier class puts you 1-2 months closer to year 2 pay, ~140/hr.
I could wrong on this as I can't remember, lets say you delay till after Jan 1. Unless something has changed, you WON'T get a profit share check from 2019.
We ALL KNOW PS isn't a guaranty, but also weigh that against the bonus at your current job combined with possibly a couple months sooner at year 2, a DC contribution, etc.
