Career advice: Stable job vs. L3Harris opportunity

I’m looking for some career advice regarding a potential job offer.

I currently work as a coating technician in Mississauga. I’ve been there for 4.5 years, but I feel my growth has stalled. My annual raises are minimal (typically 40–70 cents), and I’m stuck on a night shift that I’d like to leave. My current commute is very short (10km). My total pay is $23.20/hr ($20.70 + $2.50 night premium).

I have a new offer from L3Harris in Don Mills as a Coating Technician. The pay is $28/hr + 11% premium (~$31.08/hr total).

The Catch:

1. The Commute: It’s a 50km drive one way (100km round trip) from Mississauga to Don Mills.
2. The Schedule: It’s a weekend shift (Friday, Saturday, Sunday). For the first 3 months, I have to work the morning shift (6:00 AM start).

My Conflict:

I really want to prioritize my career growth and get out of the night shift, but I’m worried about the 100km daily commute and the impact on my work-life balance. My questions for you:

 Is a 34% pay increase worth a 100km daily commute in the GTA?

 Has anyone worked at L3Harris? Is the experience as a Coating Technician worth it for future career prospects?

 How do you manage a weekend-heavy schedule?

Any advice or perspective would be greatly appreciated!"
