I often hear people say not to worry about titles if the money is there. But there is a big different between title and role/responsibility. Would you jump from Sr. Manager to Manager at a different Big 4 for a significant bump in pay? In this example the titles are an apples-to-apples comparison between firms and you would be taking a step back in both title and role/responsibility/hierarchy. That is very different then going from Sr. Manager to Analyst at a company where Analysts have 10 YoE.

Even though it largely depends on your long term goals, ceteris paribus, more money for less responsability does not sound bad

Well the thing is, it’s pretty unlikely to make that jump and be paid more. If that is the case, then you’re likely underpaid for an SM and can probably find better paying opportunities at the SM level elsewhere.

What if you are severely underpaid in your current role and the new role is in a different/better service area than your current? So a Similar SM role at a different company may be more of a stretch.

How many years away are you from equalling your new comp at your current firm? How many years away are you from the SM promo at the new firm?

Assume 2-3 years at your current firm since there wouldn’t be a large promotion increase in this situation. I think it is equally likely you could get promoted in 2-3 years at the new firm, with annual increases and a large promotion increase.

Why do that? Just ask for SM in combination with the increased compensation or jump to industry for more money.
