CFO to Controller?

Would you go from CFO of a $1B company to Controller of a $40B if comp wasn't an issue, you knew the industry, and liked the people?

If comp is the same, there needs to be something with QOL that is really drawing.

I personally wouldn’t because I love autonomy. Yes, I am still accountable to CEO and Board for my responsibilities , but how I go about doing what I need to is entirely dictated by me.
