REIT associate pre MBA

I have the opportunity to join a well respected REIT as a pre MBA associate under the CFO. The issue I am struggling with is that the CFO is known to be pretty intense and create alot of work. Is it worth it to take a pay cut to go work for the REIT or should i keep my current gig and make bank but work more hours? Or keep looking (maybe at more relaxed REITs) where a pay cut would mean a substantial decrease in hours?
