Essentially Salesforce Business Analyst does the requirement gathering and create user stories for those requirements to implement. Salesforce Administrator takes user stories and implement it if it’s just the configuration like Profiles setup, user setup, Flow or Workflow rules.

I would also say there’s a nuance with admins:

Sole admin org - admin plays role of BA, does configurations, does deployment, and tests changes.

Larger team - BA does BA work, admin does config work, dev does dev work, etc.

Analysts writes up the tickets, admins completes the tickets.

If you make it to senior manager at big four can you leave and become partner or director at mid size firm? Is this hard to do? I know there is a lot of politics at big four and have no interest staying in a senior manager role for 6-8 years and risk a chance of still not becoming partner. Also I got a long way to go before senior manager fyi.

I'm accepting an offer with a new company... Start in early Aug. Senior Manager role, though in this company that equates to Manager at most consulting farms. They did not had hunt me. I came to them for the job.

I have COVID delayed vacations planned for the last week in August and the first week in October.

Should I just cancel one of them? Or should I at least put both on the table and see what they say? They're going to hire me either way, but I wonder if it's a bad start to ask for both.

I have been talking to a recruiter for a little over a month about a position. I let her know out the gate that I really wasn’t looking to change jobs, but she just kept wanting to continuing the conversation. I didn’t have 2 interviews with the hiring coming and they know that I am not really looking to make a switch. They are now working on an offer letter and I know they’re going to offer me more money. I’m having my annual review this week. Any advice on how to handle a) job offer b) review?
