I left a tech company for a CPG, so not 100% aligned with your question but I took a slight paycut, but it gave me the flexibility to move to my hometown with my family. On the other side I’ve seen no upward mobility since my lateral move, but I don’t know if that’s the difference in the industries or how my current employer is performing.
Such broad experiences for you. Moving closer to family is always a benefit when considering any role.
I hope you get the upward mobility soon

B2B SaaS wins on base pay, almost every time. A mid-level demand gen manager at a SaaS company routinely clears $110-130K. The same title at a consumer brand? $85-100K, if you're lucky — and they'll remind you about the "brand equity" you're building. The dirty secret: B2C companies charge a prestige tax, and marketers pay it willingly. Cool ads don't pay your mortgage. Have you actually run the numbers side by side?
Interesting take. I agree that B2B though may appear boring has more financial benefits for the individual .
