If you get an unexpected offer elsewhere Don’t just stay out of loyalty.
Don’t just quit because you’re flattered.
Determine how you would define your ideal next step, both professionally and personally, and weigh your unexpected offer against the prospects exactly where you are.
There are many reasons why you might be dissatisfied with your current situation.
But, before you quit, ask yourself if the reasons for your dissatisfaction will actually be cured if you quit your job.
Quitting your job could very well be an excellent response to a bad career situation.
More likely, it is several steps away from what you need to do right now.
Sometimes, it is even unnecessary, and your energy spent on quitting could be better used to improve your situation right where you are.
Instead of asking yourself whether you should quit (or fantasizing about how you’ll quit!), ask yourself what the very next step is that you can take right now.
The only good reason to quit is to improve your immediate situation.
Before you quit, research how you can improve your situation further.
Focus on how to improve the overall situation, not whether or not you should quit.

Yes, i think relocating is a viable solution in any working industry, because, when an organization relocates you , it is the time to test you , what you can give or sacrifice for and organization.
If you successfully accept relocation then in near future te organization rewrds you with a good opportunity and success.
