Headhunter reaches out on LinkedIn with a "strategy analyst" role at a large bank. I'm an SC so this sounds like a downgrade, but I'm guessing they have different names for levels. Thoughts?

Most banks follow the analyst -> associate -> Vice President progression with ~3 years in role for each. So definitely a downgrade.

Probably pays mode

More pay doesn’t mean much if you have to work excessively more hours to attain it. For example, 100k vs 40 hours per week is better than 120k vs 60 which is better than 150k vs 80, in my opinion. For long term, I personally would be willing to do 40-50 hours per week, but anything more than that is no go for me (would impact family, personal life, health, etc.)

Not a bro, but thanks for the thoughts 💁

I would aim to be brought in at least as associate

Hello Fishes, I have a Job offer from Cisco and Verizon(VDSI).

Cisco CTC - 16.2LPA , Fixed - 15.1LPA - Cisco TAC role.

Verizon data services llc - CTC 18LPA , Fixed - 16.1LPA

YOE - 6.5 Years
CCTC - 7.2 LPA
Tech - Networking and Security

Conflicted between both as I believe Cisco has a better brand value and great company to work for. But the offer from Verizon is competitive.

Is it a good idea to renegotiate with Cisco based on current offer from Verizon. Please share your thoughts.
