S& bonus is two to three times more than EYP

EYP probably has better WLB

Stay at EYP. Same title and base is unattractive, especially if it resets your promo clock. Gap in WLB (S& has worse wlb) may or may not justify the bigger bonuses, which aren't guaranteed anyway. Needing to reestablish yourself at a new place takes extra time and effort.

Main exception: you're targeting an industry that S& will let you specialize in that you can't access at EYP.

My opinion is no, unless you really need the money and that money is worth the extra time and stress. Sounds like you may work 20% harder for 20% more money.

S& pays much more all in

Is S& WLB really that bad? Would be surprised if it is much worse than EYP strategy... maybe that’s the case for the other EYP competencies since it seems they have pretty decent WLB

Oh how I would love to have 60 hour weeks...

Depends on your level. Are you coming in as an associate or SA? Then it’s probably worth it. If you’re moving as a manager, it will be a much more difficult adjustment.

Anyone out there who left their previous job for a new one have any advice or life experience to share?

I also feel a bit stagnant in my job but the job security has kept me put. Would love to hear if leaving a comfortable job for more money is always worth it.
