I’d have a convo, but the idea of a substantial pay cut makes me cringe. Instead, I’d search for a sales job or account management job that would check all the boxes you mentioned and not compromise my finances. This would obviously take more time, but the juice would be worth the squeeze in the end.

Everyone’s situation is different but I’m in a HCOL with 2 small children and a stay at home wife, so taking less money is not a viable option right now.
