Well after countless sleepless nights establishing pros/cons, I've made my decision. Accepted the new job and resigned from my current firm today. Bitter sweet. I will miss the many perks of travel, mainly being able to get away and have my own time and doing what I want during the week. BUT that doesn't outweigh being able to come home, see my wife and daughter and sleep in my own bed Mon-Thurs. Something I haven't done consistently in a LOONG time.

Congrats! It will be an adjustment but shouldn't be too hard to slip into the new role.
All the best wishes in your new adventure!
