Oh hell yea take that. I’m sure there are ways back to consulting down the road too if you want to ever come back. That’s good $$ and a great work life setup.

Don’t make the decision based on money. It’s pretty much the same salary when you factor in all your travel perks (daily meal allowance, hotel points,miles)

Give it to me...

If u decide to not take it, I will be happy to talk to them

What kind of company / role is industry?

It’s for a big insurance company

Take it - you will be happier and your kids will love you!

Take two steps back - what are your career aspirations, and do either of these get you closer to that? I don’t recommend just only looking at the next decision in front of you.

Congrats on the offer and good luck with decision!

Go have a life

Yep !

Got any side hustles? Then take a job that lets you have a side hustle

Depending on your firm, if you have no interest in making partner, take it!!! There’s still room to move in industry and you’ll have work/life balance

Bit of a niche topic: I’ve been in TS/SCI processing for a Science/Tech/Weapons analyst position with the CIA for 3 yrs since I finished grad school in chemistry, but CIA positions are sort of set it and forget it since they can take so long. I’ve since been focused on a Patent Attorney track and am with a firm that will support me taking the patent bar/law school. If I get through processing and go to the CIA for some time, do you think would I be accepted back into patent law later on?
