You'll effectively have gotten a pay decrease come next July when you would e gotten promoted to Sr Mgr, though assume the Co would give you a raise by then so maybe not. Ultimately it boils down to what do you want to do with your career? If you're 100% confident it's not be a Partner then it could be a good move assuming the upward mobility is there.
