If you stay with the current company you keep security, whereas the new company brings added risk. However, the new company may provide more opportunity for you to expand in directions that the present company can never offer. It depends on your tolerance for risk. I'm now 50 and have had a variety of jobs in two countries. Looking back, I'm very glad that I took risks earlier on and tried new things, because I wouldn't have had nearly as many interesting experiences.
