Manager for sure

like

Stay. The longer you stay the more you will earn over your career. If you leave, wait until senior manager so you can get a better position with a client. You will progress faster at the firm than you will in industry.

I left 6 months shy of Mgr promotion

what position did you end up with in industry?

Manager 100%

Depends. If you leave as a senior you will have a lot of opportunities and positions u can fill but u will take longer to get on the management side of things and that level of income. If you make manager, it may be harder to find a position because ur worth so much but when u do, u will have better upward trajectory and be paid better. In private tho, I don't think it's too hard to get a position as a manager as recruiters are still blowing me up
