After you leave your original firm people aren’t going to really know if you lost one to two years anyway. My vote is leave for pay raise and or title.

SM at boutique if you don't plan/ can't see making a PPED at Big 4. If it's doesn't work, I am sure Big 4s/ mid tier firms would love to have you back.

Downside, you may loser a year or two in the ordeal. Risk reward ratio!

Currently studying for the DP-100 exam. Any tips/tricks for studying? I'm currently using the MeasureUp practice test, taking a Udemy course, and looking through the self paced study material.

MeasureUp: a lot of really obscure questions and the documentation references aren't great.

Udemy & Self-Paced Doumentation: very high level and the practice questions are too easy. I could answer most without following the material.

Also, there isn't a lot of overlap between the study materials.
