Have name changed for this. Entirely hypothetical situation as I haven't yet been offered the job, but am in interview process.
I've been with the same employer for 23 years and am so fed up with current role and office politics that I'm praying for a redundancy payout. We're under resourced and the workload just keeps getting higher. It's all a bit toxic. I find myself counting down to retirement which is realistically 5 years away.
I got approached for a role in a smaller business but using my existing skills. The package is a 10% pay increase plus car allowance plus greater bonus potential than current role. The job excites me and I think I could do it. But part of me is reluctant to give up my years of service and move out of my comfort zone. New role is WFH (as is current) with some business travel.
WWYD? Now that I've written it all out it sounds like a no brainer.
