Get out your calculator. First you say you're getting "20% more than
what [you] are currently getting."
Next line, you're getting a hike to the same range in [your] present
company.
which is it?

With what you know about yourself, which I'd assume is more than
anyone on the list, only you can decide.
Make a matrix. On one side is the pros and on the other is the cons.
Get as detailed as you can, then make the decision.
Of course, simpler would be to keep your present job and send one of
us in instead.
