35 and a senior. Where did I go wrong?

Knowledge seeker checking in..

EY1: it was a difficult trade-off between the Queens English and the word limit in OP. I am afraid that I might have hurt the sensitive language love side of a superior native speaker. Kindly accept my profound apologies.

M1/2: I am thinking for Exec buy would it be as value added as the regular one!! I am moving to Chicago next month and will stay there for couple of years unless my wife and kid are sick of Chicago winter. I am getting multi directional views from different blogs and forums so that's why thought to ask for help here - from horses mouth if I may say so!!

Should I renege offer from MBB?

An MBA recent grad. I signed with MBB last year. However, I have always wanted to do tech PM. I couldn’t find PM job in Fall and just signed MBB offer I have. I recently got an FAANG offer. It’s PM function, hard to break in with consulting experience. I declined the new offer during interview stage and again after they gave me initial offer, but it is coming back with 80k more in annual compensation. It made me so torn!! Should I renege MBB offer?
