It would require travel to Asia for project set up occasionally but mostly regular desk job. Seems like a relaxed culture and the role is very must project management ...not consulting so a bit bland. But at the same time I feel like I might be throwing away all my work of getting promoted and enjoying just riding the wave for a while.

Probably a cut to $100k

Pro list to stay vs pro list to go? Con list? Life values? Other considerations- culture, direct team, company vision / future, etc.?
