Who the fuck wouldn't want more money for a junior role?! Junior role implies that the pressure is less and also implies that you can move into a higher role and get even more money.

Are you in valuation? Not sure how you would ever jump straight from consulting to IB. Assuming Senior Associate is like a typical VP level. It's more of half a step down. I would go assuming you're early 30s and it's a decent firm.

I'm 30, of course I will take the money

Principal at 30. Damn

Take the 💰

How much do you project each make?

180?

Yeah base. But a VP in IB can make well over 100% bonus

That is way below principal base.
