Litigator leaving private practice?

:24px-Flag_of_Ontario:Ontario

I’m a 5th year litigation. I mostly do class actions at a big law firm, on partnership track but mainly bored.

In other words, I don’t really enjoy my day-to-day but I do enjoy the pay check.

I’ve been interviewing for an in-house position at a fintech company, where I’d be managing disputes.

Although I’m excited about the role, I’m full of doubts. Is it too early to leave big law? Will I regret the pay cut? Will the work be interesting?

Any tips would be appreciated!
