Thoughts on going from"Senior Manager" at a large firm to a "Manager" at a boutique? The salary is significantly higher, but could it be perceived as a demotion/downgrade later on in my career?

Nah. Recruiters understand titles vary by company and industry. It all depends on your package, YOE and explaining to the next recruiter. I was a manager and now an Associate but my package is higher. So it doesn’t matter.

What’s your package?

Titles are done a dozen. Follow the money

No

I have been supervising and managing our team of 6 for months with no extra pay or bonuses. I was told yesterday that raises will be light this year. Yet today they spare nothing.
