Which kind of work you are doing. It depends really. PCS, AIF, SALT, Corp, etc

90% of my work is Corp (federal) some SALT

Easy if you take a pay cut. Both jobs use heavy excel. Don't expect a big raise though.

I’m an FA at ML, been in the role for 1 year and 8 months, but have 23 years of industry experience.

First of all, who is “they” / “them” and what would the letter of education be for? Any thoughts?
