Current - Microsoft PM L63 TC~$200 (Base:$145 Bonus:15% Stock:$38/year) redmond

GCP Offer - PgM L4 (non-tech) TC~$215 (Base:$130 Bonus:15% Stock:$70k/year) Signon: $25k

Location: Seattle
YoE: 10 years

This is after negotiation. Job level is non-negotiable

Option 1: take GCP offer now and try for promotion (is 2 years realistic?)

Option 2: Let it go and apply again next year. I know where i messed up in the interview (example system design) and beleive i can do better after strengthening those areas. Even if i do well next year i don't expect more than TPM L5 (as i don't have people mgmt experience which i understand is required for L6).
I'm not unhappy at MS but don't see any promotion happening over next 2 years.
Also appeared for Facebook but got rejected after onsite. Don't want to go to Amazon as worklife balance is important for me currenty

Any suggestions?
