Goldman Sachs Offer - Associate PM, advice?

Received an offer as Associate Project Manager in Salt Lake - can anyone chime in if I should take it? I’m leaning towards no, currently a Technical Project Manager at EM and think if I study more system design I can get a PgM role at a tech company (but not necessarily faang). Reasons to take it: * Move from Texas to Salt Lake (closer to family but still a few hours away) * New challenges in a more interesting, less cyclical industry (O&G is either boom or bust, currently it’s a bust and I may lose my job soon) * Goldman could look good for graduate school? Reasons to not: * Not revenue generating function * Similar TC in a slightly more expensive city (🥜) * Strays away further from technical realm as this is non-technical PM * Similar legacy type software and old environment from EM to GS * Probably would have to do LDR with GF or potentially break up 😅 Also anyone know if I decline the offer for now but want to reconsider interviewing in a year how that looks? Or am I permanently on the “never interview” list? #interview #finance
