My previous role was TL role but in TCS I have been offered initially AST role for which I was very happy but later while document verification HR identified a gap in the experience and have changed the role to IT analyst but the salary hike was not reduced . How long would it take for me to get promoted to AST role. I re-checked with HR if my role is still going to be a TL role after getting hired she mentioned 'yes' but there will be project specific roles.

My last position was a senior manager. I had a prior co-worker contact me today saying they have an open rec for an analyst level position I would be a good fit for. Had a convo with him as I have no issue with a step down (maybe) but I’m used to sr mgr level compensation. He mentioned that there is wiggle room with the title and could be a lead. When I speak to the recruiter, how should I address? If they ask my comp req and it’s double an analyst salary am I shooting myself in the foot?
