This is my comment. Addressing some of the questions

1. I took a pay cut. I went from 190K+ USD (~250k+ CAD) to 180k CAD (this includes my bonus. My base is lower, say around ~150k CAD). Numbers are fuzzed but close enough to reality.

This is a significant drop, but of course it's still a very good salary for Canada. I'm satisfied with my decision.

2. I'm in Marketing, reasonably senior. Couple levels down from the CMO.

3. Same company. Essentially got transferred with a pay cut. This made it easy for the company as well. It helped that I've been here for a longish time and have built relationships within the company. They were very supportive.
