What’s the difference between an accounting manager and an accounting lead role?

Completely depends on the size and structure of the org. Titles can be confusing with so many companies using similar terms without similar responsibilities.

Probably the manager role you are managing a team and the lead role you are mainly managing yourself

Aaron mentioned earlier titles aren't uniform across organizations.

I feel like I’ve really mucked up my early career choice. I enjoy mechanical engineering and I do believe that it CAN be a broad field, but nowhere near as much mobility as data science, business analytics, consulting, etc. I plan to get my MBA in the future and transition to project mgmt, but that’s well over 5-7 years away. Has anyone felt like they made a bad choice for undergrad, or do I just need to give myself more time? Currently an R&D Engineer at a private food/bev manufacturing company
