Toby,
I work in the construction industry and have for most of my adult life.

I do field engineering for a concrete foundation co. I have about 20% office time and the rest field. I recently had the opportunity to move into a mostly office job similar to the one your being offered.

I thought it over long and hard and came to the conclusion that the field is where I belong. I really would be like a caged animal in an office all day.

I am not saying this will be case for you but it is something to consider. More money is always attractive but if you are like me being stuck inside=burnout in 6 months.

There are some other good opinions by others here.
Definitely check the turnover of this company. Talk to some people that have been there for a while.

Good luck,
and let us know after you have made your decision.
