FAANG Exit to MBB?
3.5 YOE, Non-technical, 150k TC
Been at Alphabet my entire career post-undergrad. Managed to move from Google to a well-respected Bet where I’m very happy. Undergrad was a pretty general liberal arts degree and haven’t pursued grad school yet.
What would it look like (from a TC + long term career standpoint) to switch over to MBB for a year or two then go back to FAANG?

Yes. It helps if you have another freelance opportunity for leverage. Or you can just pick a time and ask for more. But be prepared for them to say no, or worse yet, end your gig. The freelance pool is deep and they can easily replace you.
I have when the workload ended up being more intense than promised. I’ve also done it when an initial contract wraps and I have other jobs available at higher rates. Freelance rates go up and down throughout the year depending on how busy things are so I think recruiters are used to it.
It depends. Some places are offended by it.
