I’m interviewing for a role that’s basically the same level and work as what I do now, just at a more respected institution with better funding. On paper it looks lateral, but the environment upgrade feels real. I can’t tell if that counts as career progress or just moving sideways. How did you judge moves like that?

If the environment is going to be an upgrade, I say go for it. The environment can really affect your work and your mental health. It sounds like a good move to me.

Reputation increase is definitely a promotion
Same with going from a lower chance of progress to a higher one
