Looking back at my 5 years in consulting, I learned 1 very important lesson; more of a mistake I made because I was naive back then. I chose Delta as my airline. Terrible idea.

I make $100K with 12% bonus and was offered a role $130k with 15-20% bonus. 4YOE in provider industry.

I am in a comfortable spot with a good team but the work is dull, new role would be consulting with more work & travel

I would appreciate pros/cons etc! Thank you.
