You’re only looking at base, which is not the metric most folks in tech look at. Total comp (Base + Bonus + Equity) is the number we look at, which will most likely far exceed your current comp. Does it exceed your current comp?

I never work more than 40 (cloud)
You are at Dir now, if you are joining as L7 or 6, just beware that promotion to Dir (L8) here is extremely hard - it’s not simply a matter of time, you need that scope too to justify.
WLB and perks are super nice. I have a growing family and that’s exactly what I need. You also get stock refresh every year, and bonus almost almost exceed baseline. I joined when GOOG was around $1000, so that appreciation is nice.
I would say not more than 5-7% less in total comp. Work-life balance would most likely be better at Google given their employee wellbeing focus.
