WWYD?
I exited earlier this year, and my first few months were brutal for a variety of reasons owing to org changes amongst other things. I’m now close to an offer with another company, and feel torn about leaving so soon. Details in comments

Current company: interesting industry but company is not keeping pace, very siloed internally, lots of org churn and turnover. Good pay with some room in pay band, but raises likely minimal unless financial results turn around. Company, industry, and my role looks good on a resume. I see myself staying 1-2 years max.

New company: different industry that is less exciting on paper but company is doing interesting things. I would probably come in near top of pay range and bonuses/RSUs would be minimal if anything. Great team, asking good questions in interview, and seems to be focused on long term fit and building careers. Role would be more narrow than current but would be collaborative through organization.

I'm a first yr attorney at an insurance firm and am in the process of interviewing for an in-house position at a tech company. The position is pretty much generalist, but I get the impression I'd be working mostly on SaaS and partnership transactions. I definitely think I would like the transactional work better, but I am concerned about the long-term earning potential vs. partnership. How common is it to eventually make $400k+ in-house/how difficult is it to transition back to a firm? Thanks!
