I'm in education management.

Company B has been around for about 20 years, but restructured itself three years ago and almost started over. They have a new CEO that is making good changes.

I'm okay with where I am, like I said, this is unsolicited. I have a young child and Company A currently has a high benefit - free college tuition anywhere in the country. That's about 15 years down the road though. That could be a $200k benefit when it comes time.

I'm leaning toward staying put because the job move is simply not life changing. If they were doubling my salary, it'd be a different story. I can handle the micromanagement.

Is that something that you expect to be there in 15 years? Benefits change sometime

If you don't mind the micromanagement I'd probably stay put.

Can you negotiate even higher salary to make up for the split? Do you believe you are capable of surviving a restructuring? Does being your own boss seem like something you'd enjoy?

I feel like those are some important questions. Considering you had lunch with the CEO, I'd imagine you could have some bargaining power about the position since it seems like they have high interest
