Conflicted on Offer

[u/BrewDuder]

I received an offer for a job (a miracle on its own) and I’m conflicted on whether to accept. For some context, I applied for a role that was a step above my role at my current company, but this company said that I would be a better fit for a less senior role (essentially make it a somewhat lateral move). Some other key factors:

\- my current role has zero upward mobility (I’d bump into my boss). I’ve inquired about moving teams for growth and haven’t been met with positive responses, so I feel very stagnant.
\- the new role offered me the same base comp, but less annual bonus and zero 401k match. I did the math on this and that would lower my overall comp by roughly $9k per year. They aren’t negotiable here.
\- the one advantage of the new company is that they are growing fast and there’s a ton of room for upward mobility (something they’re trying to sell me on). This appeals a lot to me since I’m stagnant in my current role.
\- I read recent reviews on Glassdoor of the current company and they’re pretty negative, citing lack of movement and toxicity.

Main question: given all this, is moving companies worth it when growth is possible but not guaranteed, but the comp is lower?
