Struggling with a potential opportunity - I’ve been at my current agency for about 7 months, and I’m indifferent to the job - don’t hate the work, but don’t love it either. My old CW partner is asking me to interview for another agency and a possible promotion if I make the jump. But I don’t want to screw over my current team/not sure if 7 months on a gig looks bad. Any thoughts or opinions?

TLDR: possible job opportunity but possible cons for leaving current job
