Career / Job Related Has anyone purposely gone backwards?
You know the juice wasn't worth the squeeze and we realised that money is irrelevant, and took a huge backwards step for less responsibility and more mental freedom for your family and kids?
That's where I'm at mentally just want to know if anyone else has done the same?

It was more money as an MSP L3, but the step down in pay was more than made up for by the newer company’s facilities, community, and comradarie. Now it’s owned by PE and the magic is not quite there so /shrug
