If your previous team wants you back and you want to go back, jump ship.

Ops probably won't change, I got offers from almost all big tech cos coming from B4 and I'm certain I can do it again. It's not all that

Before you go back, remember why you left and decide if it’s still the right choice.

Find out if the director has any near term plans to leave. If not, to me, going back sounds like a good option.

It’s easier to do the reverse switch. With that said, here is my point of view.

Going up at tech is not same as consulting. L7, L8 etc very high level roles at Amazon for instance. They make 1000s of partners every year. Same will apply to any big tech. Getting to L7 + is a trek as that would be the ceiling for many.
