l am currently a rising junior in
college interning this summer at
Amazon as a Business Analyst. I
would really like to break into
product management and believe in
my 5 weeks so far I have shown skills
to back that up. Would it be
acceptable to ask my manager to
recommend me for a product
management internship next
summer? My midpoint meeting with
my manager (and his manager) is
next Friday

Advice needed - boyfriend has almost 3.5 years of finance experience at a bank. Interviewed for PwC valuation senior associate and now recruiter says they want to hire him at “experienced associate” because he has no valuation experience. Is this too big of a step backwards in career? Should he push back and see if it gets him anywhere? If he does accept Associate, is it reasonable to ask for written, definitive timeline (1 year?) for promo to Senior upon meeting standards? Help!

Are you really wanting out that bad? Is the new job better in any way than potentially having better exit ops? Personally based on what you shared, I’d pass. I don’t think moving for a better exit and nothing else is worth it, unless you’re really that unhappy or the next job (after this new one) is nearly guaranteed.
Both jobs are industry IA btw
Pro
You're in IA and you're jumping to another IA job with worse hours for exit ops...? Makes no sense. IA doesn't even have exit ops, why get a worse job.
SA - Take a finance SM or M for coffee in your current company. Show some interest about what they do. Build a few relationships and ask if they ever do staff exchanges, they might have a finance person that wants to try IA and propose a 6 month trade. Industry is much more flexible with current employees and they may have an unspoken need that you could fill. Better than having to build all new relationships only for a chance at a rotation.
Pro
Hell no. Two years of pay raises MINIMUM. You are really selling yourself short.
I’ve done this, gone into a much worse job for better exit ops, but got a raise > two years worth and got a higher title.
Since you know alteryx lean on that. It’s in demand.
Is there a reason why you are moving. In my opinion, a lateral movement makes sense if you are going into a new career, different industry or if you just plainly hate your current job.
What do you mean by better exit opportunities?
Nope nope nope
If the company is flat out telling you that youre expected to rotate out of audit I would consider.
