It all depends on the agency. It's a weird time right now.

Does the new agency not have any possible pending cuts? As the newbie there, you may be more likely to be RIFed, if this happens.

As a government staffer or as a contractor? No one is talking RIFs yet, so if you are a govvie, go with the job you want. If you're a contractor, go with the surer deal.

Are you absolutely sure you can telecommute two days a week?

Working for an agency with massive budget cuts but short commute from home and good boss. However, lots of uncertainty.

I have the opportunity to move to another agency with a lot of opportunities but 1 to 1.5 hours commute coming home. 2 days telework.

Trying to make a decision on what to do.
