If I leave Big 4 as an Audit Senior instead of Mgr what difference will it make when I’m searching for jobs in industry when it comes to position and compensation and anything else that is impacted?

More positions available at senior level.

Better title and pay if you leave as manager, but it’s a little hard to sell “audit manager” -> “acct manager” because you won’t know the systems or the way things are done in industry. It can obviously be done but there are fewer of those jobs available. On the bright side they pay better.

Cmon you know the answer to this already

Have interviews set up at FAANG co and getting good signals, for a position that was posted widely (all across US) but not remote. Haven’t broached the subject of location yet. Would you (1) early on clearly state that you’re not open to relocation but that you would be open to visiting a big office once or twice a month; (2) not say anything now and wait to get an offer and ask for an exemption; or (3) something else?
