Would you move from a top-tier investment bank to a large asset manager for a modest pay bump?

Both are non-revenue generating leadership roles (operations/risk/support type functions). Move would be VP -> Director level with better bonus potential and what appears to be better WLB.

Trying to separate “prestige” from actual long-term career value. Curious what people who’ve made similar moves think 2-5 years later.
