Hi all, I got laid off from my current company (product based) a month ago. Since then I've been looking for new opportunities. I got an offer from a good product based company with a good package and also my current company offering me rehire with promotion and a good package. I have a good rapport with my current manager, and he played a major role in offering this rehire opportunity. I'm confused about making the right decision here. Kindly share your views. Both offers are pretty much same.

London, UK. Currently work in real estate finance for a retail/commercial bank. 2+ years exp in debt (mezz and senior). Graduated 2018 from UK target in Real Estate (around 1/5 modules were finance).

Got a Bb offer and team is open to me joining either as a senior analyst or junior associate. With 2 yrs of ft exp and lengthy internships before that, I feel like I'm ready for the associate role. However, team head wanted to make sure that I don't underestimate the step-up it'll require on my end and that it'll be very intense. Any thoughts? Many thanks in advance!
I feel like I'd ramp up and it'll be stressful either way.
