Been freelancing and its been great. Currently working at a really cool place with great folks etc... on a corporate mobile app project which has come to its end. They want me to stay and work on another new similar corporate project.
However I've been offered a gig working on some interactive installation work for an exhibition. The issue is that they approached me out of the blue and I've never heard or worked with them before. The company website is really bad but the CD has said so and it will change. The project sounds interesting and has a lot of scope for different uses of tech and design. In the words of The Clash. Should I stay or should I go?

If you like where you are and they like you, stay. That can be rare.
You never know if the other place might have problems or you could not like them.
If they are offering double money, consider it. Otherwise, turn it down.

This is something only you can solve, really. Listen to your stomach feeling. That's how I do it all the time.

'New challenges' are overrated unless it's something totally amazing.
Happiness is underrated. If you're content, challenged and happy, then stay!

Been in a similar situation.
What Happened
I didn't take on more work at the current gig because I decided to branch out with a new client.Why?
The work I was doing wasn't letting me grow.

You're a freelancer, so why can't you do both?
