I would concur with Gee's opinion, here. It all depends on how ambitious you are and where you want to get to and why, or how desperate you are to pay for your study.
I am ambitious and have always taken advantage of every opportunity to gain prestige in my work. Ambition, of course, is not the same thing as being competitive. The latter is about trying to prove you are better than other people and not very pleasant. I have always had very demanding jobs with quite high stress levels, and maybe that isn't such a good thing. However, the rewards, status and prestige are good.
Choosing to stay where you are is not an indication of LACK of ambition; it is recognition that what you have is good. If you do make that choice, then it may take you a while longer to pay off your study fees, but you may have more job satisfaction.
Only you know what is important for you, as a woman, wife and professional. It isn't easy fitting work into that mix.
All I would say is that while I have a challenging job, no amount of money would tempt me to take a job where going to the lavatory was a problem for my employers. As one of my former colleagues said to me once "up with some things I will not put".
Regards,
Celeste
