[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was not looking for work...when out of the blue, a HR person from another company says she found my resume on LinkedIn, and would I like to talk.  The answer to that question is always yes.  A week later, I have a job offer....

I am happy in my current job, but the new jobs is about 10% more $$$ (170K vs 155K).  On top of that, the health insurance differences will save me 5-9K/year...

I have been with my current company for almost 20 years; the new job would be my second real job.  Take the money with the risk I will not like the new work, or enjoy the security of where I am?

FWIW, I have medical issues, and my current job has been very flexible and supportive.[/quote]

You haven't provided enough information regarding the differences between both jobs.  
1) will the new job help you move up in your career?
2) how stable is the new company?
3) why did they have solicit candidates on LinkedIn instead of finding a candidate from the hundreds of resumes I'm sure they received?
4) do you know anything about who your new boss will be? [/quote]
