if you are pulling a good income from where you are now, what are you running from? there is a very real risk this expansion could fail (read loss of shiny new job). you better be damn sure the risk is totally evaluated versus where you are now. compare each company's benefits to benefits. it would be crazy to do otherwise. seems everybody these days is looking for a quick fix in their career (or running from being exposed as a non-player). 2 years here, 3 years there, 2 years somewhere else........., you get the idea. but what the hell, why not bet the house?
