I recently got hit with the 4 day mandatory RTO at my in house job. I have an opportunity to join a firm that I know is a good work life balance firm fully remote and I’m considering taking it. Has anyone ever made a transition like that and regretted it?

I'm a third year plaintiff's employment law attorney and I'm looking to move to defense, preferably still in employment law. I received an offer from a midsize firm that primarily focuses on PI with little-to-no employment law practice, so I'll have a bit of a learning curve. Offer is $90k, billable hours of 2100. Is this reasonable? I'm dead-set on leaving my current job, and this would be a $20k pay increase - which makes me believe I'm leaning towards taking it for those reasons only.
