Currently a new S1 thinking about taking a FP&A role. Is going from Senior to Analyst not Senior analyst a bad move? Mediocre raise in salary (3k) but well known company with a flat structure

You have to at least get a good raise and upward trajectory to take a downgrade in title. There are a lot of seniors who come in as analysts (because people in PA often have little to no modeling experience), but they at least get a good salary bump plus promo to senior soon after.

I wouldn't jump for 3k unless it's your dream company. Even then, I'd negotiate more.

I went from A3 > Senior Analyst so I’d say try for a senior role or analyst with huge pay raise

Curious to know. Did you apply for Sr analyst but they are only willing to give the analyst title or did you apply for the analyst title yourself?

Applied to Senior
