In Gamma pay is on average very slightly higher than generalist for same level, but tenure tends to be longer at each level. WLB is comparable or a bit better in places. But you should only switch if, like me, you enjoy coding (assuming you are not a PL yet) - that’s what you’ll be doing.

To clarify ^, is this by equivalent title or years exp? Assuming the former...
