Stay at trade support analyst role or move to Product control?

I have the opportunity to work as an AVP in a product control role at a top 10 bank. I currently work as a trade support analyst at a large bank as well. My ultimate goal is to get into a decent MBA program in my home country, but I have heard nothing but bad things about product control on this forum. Should I take the product position anyways due to higher salary and title?
