Financial analyst, staff accountant, FR, IA. Possible senior title for the roles mentioned if the stars align. FP&A if you're more ambitious.

Or stay in PA but switch to FDD or AAS.

Difference between FP&A and a FA?

Depends. Sometimes FA = FP&A. But sometimes FA is just a fancy name for staff accountant or specific department accounting. I've seen that on a lot of the clients I've been on. Vehicle accounting = FA. Manufacturing cost accounting = FA. You get the point.

Big reason why you need to look at job responsibilities and not just title. If a role is titled FP&A it usually is true FP&A. The same is not true for FA.

OP, you’re promoting to senior in 5 months. Right? Stay. Then leave if you want. But get the title. You’re too close to it.

5+ years of full-time job as developer and still waiting to reverse a LinkedList at work.

Since there is a heavy impetus on solving Tree, LinkedList, and Graph problems for tech interviews, it can naturally make freshers believe that these concepts will be used in day-to-day life at work. In reality, most of these DSA concepts are already implemented in some libraries our code uses and we rarely have to code such Algorithms by hand.

Problem solving skill >>> DSA
