Thoughts on a 4th year associate moving from defense firm to associate counsel position at pharma company for the same base salary but guaranteed 10% bonus and eligibility to participate in equity pool? I feel like it’s a no brainer but I just don’t know if there’s an angle I’m missing here

Hello, I am in USI GES tax at DUSI. I love my job but not my team and mgmt anymore. I'm a performer and I'm dumped with work of 2 ppl while others are searching for work. I am burned out.
