In tech, analyst is not always entry level like it is in consulting. For example your title could be product analyst and you could manage a team of other product analysts. 4 YOE without an MBA should map to an L4 role (one level above entry level)

Gotcha.

Question: Do you think it’ll be a good move longterm? MBA prospects, lateral industry moves, etc?

My friend works at AWS right now and titles are a bit confusing. Your title can be manager but you might end up being an independent contributor. You could also be an analyst and lead a team of 3-8 staff members.

L4 is a good target level. +1 to above regarding analyst meaning role, not seniority.

You're an extreme long shot for a people manager role. Many roles will have the word manager in the title, which is great for your long-term prospects.

? Analyst will mean analyst, not a people manager. I’ve never seen an analyst people manager.

Sometimes “manager” will still be an individual contributor role.

You’ll likely get a senior analyst type role 1lvl above entry, title will vary and could be “manager” but you won’t actually be a manager of ppl unless you have prior experience.
