“Return to old company for title promotion and pay bump”

Returning to Company B could mean another relocation, potentially leaving me in the same situation as before.

What I wish I knew
"More information about Company B's long-term relocation plans"
If I could tell you one thing
"Consider weighing short-term gains against long-term stability"
