Consulting company sounds more enjoyable and better experience wise but of course 100k a year isn't bad. I'd still go with option one

Not nearly enough info to make an informed decision unless you just need that extra money.

Don't forget to monetize benefits too

Depends on the commute, benefits package, etc.

85 to 100K is only like 100+/- per pay check. I would then go onto other things such as benefits, hrs , atmosphere ...etc

Cash is king, but like others have mentioned review the factors and know yourself and be honest to yourself.

Can you do the job?
Stressful or not, are you predisposed to stress?
Drive time?
Hours?
Benefits
Stability

Other perks (Beer cart on Friday at 2)? Yes I have a developer friend on mine who works for a start up (~2 years now) and they have beer cart Friday and are required to shut down their machines at 2 pm. CEO Demands it......

Hows 85 to 100k only $100 per pay check? My calculations show at least $500 per pay check, $1k extra a month. Thats not small change.

2.5 stars on Glassdoor sounds really bad...

Assuming your standard rate of 80% to the 401K of course!
