I've been stuck in middle management for the past seven years with no signs of a promotion in sight. Do I throw away all of my time here to take a lower level position at a different firm? The only jobs I've been offered haven't been management roles, so I'd be starting over.

If you will be starting over. I would say stick out 1 more year and give yourself a timeline. If nothing works out. Move out.

I was in the exact same position. I left and took a lateral at a competitor for a bit more money. Best decision ever. My experience at my prior carrier provided a fresh perspective and set me apart. I was promoted two years later and I am completely reinvigorated and love my job again.

You can do it! Best of luck to you.

Tough choice. What is your goal? My biggest concern would be starting all over again just to end up in the same position after moving up from starting lower.
