Having 2 thoughts of leaving D cuz life is pretty comfortable as an SM with decent comp. New offer takes me to industry, bumps title to Dir and comp (same base but higher bonus potential).
Any views?

Yes why not. Don't you want a good life to enjoy the comp you make? Sounds like a no brainer, unless you're at the cusp of making a partner

It's a life choice to be honest. I'd take the exit personally as there are things I want to do outside of work that I don't get time for in consulting.

I’d leave for industry because sales targets are 🥵 and consulting is very up or out

Can always boomerang back later

Think that boomeranging applies more to junior levels. As a SM, I can’t boomerang as PPD, unless I spend 5-7 years in industry and hold high in-demand expertise or sales potential.

Provide more info. Comp is flat (don't bet on high bonus). Title is reasonable, depending on firm. But what is the impact to wlb? Is the role aligned with your career plans? Is salary or role progression comparable? How does the culture compare?

Leaving sounds fine, but that doesn't clearly make it the best move.
