Few thougths: 1) there is no career suicide before age 35. So many I talk to say they are crushed, but they are only in the first quarter of their career. 2) Taking lower pay/jobs has negative implications in a large, structured environment, like consulting, for example. Moving from a senior director to a director position actually sets you back the equivalent amount of years. But in smaller companies, or where the career track is not so well defined, it is simply an opportunity to perform, and if you do, you will be paid and promoted.
