I'm working with an IT MNC in PMO profile.

Is it Bad to change Sector from 'IT' and moving into the same profile (PMO Support) but with the 'Investment Banking sector'?

Some people says once you move out from IT sector, there is no chance getting back to it. Is this really true?

Please assist, this question is eating me.

Investment banking is a dream setup for many in PMO. You gain Project Management+ domain knowledge. Also, the wlb is generally better and pay scale is above average than IT. Many of my PMO friends are doing great in Investment banking firms.

Many thanks for your uplifting statement.
This really helped me to make the right decision.

Need help from the Hivemind. I am a rising 4th year who has only been at my firm for a little over a year (after a few clerkships). I like my firm well enough, and the partners I work with like me a lot, but I’ve learned that Biglaw is not the life for me and want to get out ASAP. I’m applying to a Fed agency that I’m really excited about, but the application requires a reference from your current supervisor. I haven’t told the firm I’m thinking about leaving. How would you handle this?

Just received 2 offers that I’m weighing, both in Advertising tech:

2. FAANG, Sales Account Manager role (similar to my current role)
I have 5-6 YOE and have been in an Account Management role for most of my career - is it worth making the switch to PMM at a smaller firm or sticking with what I know at a FAANG? Both would have relatively similar comp. Thanks in advance for your input!
