Female, 4 years in the industry, 2 years as a planning associate, 2 years as an FA.
Got an offer from an awesome team to be a CSA - which seemed great because (I think) I miss the support/planning role and I haven’t loved my time as an FA thus far.
However, management has now stepped in and insisted I join the new team as an FA, not CSA.
What should I be considering when making this decision on changing teams/titles? Should I push back on management on joining as a CSA?

I was just talking to a younger friend who goes to Cal and It seems like the kids these days hate FAANG or at least Amazon and Facebook are not desired at all. I personally don’t see too many issues working at either Amazon or Facebook because I work at Deloitte where I’m sure we have many questionable clients and worked in financial services before.
