I work as a corporate credit analyst at a mid size bank in Canada.
I have an MBA Fin and am also a Bachelor in computer engg.
I have an opportunity to shift into an IT Consultant client focused role. In this role, Banks will be my primary clients with focus on wholesale/commercial banking.
IT co is paying 80% more than current comp.

Should I switch?

80% more is insane… if you’re interest in pursuing IT, I’d give it a shot. Can always go back to work in a bank later.

Wow! You already have an experience with banking and still will be dealing with banks after shifting to a new role. Besides, 80% more is not a joke. Why are you still asking? Are you not feeling satisfied with your current work?
