Switched when I was an A3, some 6-7 months before becoming an SA. At the time it was easily the best decision to make, but I advice youngsters now to think it through because in-house is not all that it's made out to be. While it will vary by industry, it's common knowledge now that businesses have peaks where in-house counsel can be working 14 hours a day, 7 days a week. Pay disparity can also be very high because your peers will make partner with 10 years PQE while you'll be Manager Legal or VP legal at most. It's definitely better in terms of work life balance, but if you can tide it out in a law firm for 5-7 years and then make the switch, do it.
