That is a lot of money to turn down. At the end of the day, you have to do what is best for you. If it were me, I would take it.

True... If this company had a restructure now... Would they think twice about how long ago they hired you? No... The rule where I have worked has been last in first out..
It happens all the time, do what's best for you. As soon as you have a concrete start date at the new company, let your current employer know that you got a better offer/fit, and offer to stay 2 weeks to allow them to find a replacement. You are most likely burning that bridge in any case, so don't get too hung up on the notice period.
It's not much different than the employee that finds another job after years working somewhere. Investments have been made, and it creats the need to hire a replacement just the same. They would fire you with a days notice if the business ess need arose.
Get it in writing of course

I have been in this position and it is uncomfortable. I remind myself that companies make business decisions, not emotional ones. I would weigh long term growth, stability, and learning, not just the salary jump.
Very good point. I just created a side by side pro's and cons list.
