Do it - if it’s a role you’d actually enjoy and learn from. I did the same thing and grew so much more than if I had stayed in consulting bc I was thrown into the fire on day 1 at my new company. If you thrive by being challenged, I say go for it. Assumption here is that a company paying 100k for a junior person is a pretty legit brand, you could always come back.

A little early to leave for not much $$$. Unless it’s a great company / dream role, better to let compensation increase in consulting before exiting

Did the same. Would recommend since you can always go back and you will likely learn more in the new position

Depends on your current level and how you think your income will tier up in the next 5 yrs. If you think you would more likely be on the "out" and not the "up" then yeah take it for sure

Can anyone give me their honest opinion on working at Eli Lilly, the Indy site? I have a few coworkers that have worked there in the past but no one recently. I’m currently being recruited pretty seriously for a in-vivo technician position in the auto-immune team, but I already have a job lined up at Envigo as a small animal sx tech. Salaries would be comparable (Lilly would most likely be a little more with bonuses), but if the culture sucks, I’d hate to burn a bridge with Envigo.
