Currently at a small agency with great consumer and b2b clients but due to budget cuts there isn’t room for a promotion for at least 6 months. I’ve been there 2.5 years with no growth. I’ve been approached by a recruiter for a position in Senior Living Marketing. I’ve worked in that industry before and it’s not a place I want to be long term, although it was enjoyable day to day. Is a $15k bump in salary worth making the move or not?

If you're pretty sure that you can advance where you are, then I guess that's the answer. It's possible things will pick up across the board in the new year, but you'd be hoping it does. If you know you can get a nice salary bump by moving on, then it seems to make sense.
