For those that have branched out to create their own path and freelance, how much experience do you have and would you do it again? Have been doing server remediation work for financial services for 7 years and am frustrated with the company that I am contracting as an intermediary with the firm. Is it time to just do my own thing?

Question! I just moved(transferred) to another team of my company and received new title, graphic & creative services. I was a senior graphic designer at the previous team. What do you think about my new title? I know that title is not a big thing but why I feel like my title is downgraded here… Good thing is my jobs here at my current team are what I really wanted to do. This is amazing. I love my new team and people here! Super healthy working environment! But just curious about the title.
