It's hard to walk away from the money
Stable company with good benefits and some interesting things to work on.

Overly risk-averse. Roll the dice where it makes sense.
Get better at using BI on your own internal data to run development operations. Eat your own dogfood and use TFS and Project to run all your own projects. Convert 25% of your leads that are strong ICs back to ICs, keep the 50% that are technically strong and great people managers, and reallocate the 25% dead weight to hire more ICs or invest in creating more innovative products.
