Currently a sr data engineer for asset management firm. I am in my comfort zone and don’t have much growth in my current role. Work life balance is amazing.
Have an opportunity to move to Risk team on business side as a Risk Analyst as I have worked with one of the hiring managers previously. The only downside is the comp numbers are going to remain the same even though currently I’m below par and it will be double work. Also I’m not sure if I’ll get much of data science there. Is it good move?

I know what you mean. As a BI masquerading as a Quant, I'd say it's better to have a role that has a solid career path embedded into front office roles. You can go risk and try pivot to a front office Quant team or so. Will your bonus remain the same? Base sucks for internal lateral moves but in mine the bonus makes a difference.
