Would any of you guys leave a company for the same amount of $$ but better name and if it meant a lower title? Think something like IBM to PWC.

Who the F cares about titles?

like

I don't but what I do care about is salary potential. If I don't end up liking it there and I decide to move, I'm sure the title will affect the amount of $ im able to get elsewhere

like

There'd have to be a good reason. For example if I were unhappy with the culture of my current firm, if another firm could put me in a practice more aligned with my interests/goals, or if it really were a big jump (like to MBB), then maybe. But it also means having to start over with networking and relationship building. Also the lower title is a big con.

like

Also check the title mapping. For instance "Associate Partner" at IBM is really Senior Manager at Big4. I'm still not sure WTF a "Senior Managing Consultant" is, despite having been one before realizing the error of my ways. So, your title perception may not actually be accurate.

Let's say I can't get a product or marketing job in tech, but I could get in via sales or customer success. Does working in those roles pigeonhole you, or is it easy to switch later? If you take a job as a customer success mgr for ads, or as a partnership mgr for learning solutions for industry X, are you going to get stuck in those products (ads, learning solutions), roles (CS, sales/partnerships), or target industry (X)?

It's about the time where everyone on my team requests feedback from each other and I'm nervous for it coming up. My manager knows that everything I've worked w her on I end up doing 90% of the work when it's meant to be split so it is a known issue. We're both at level 3 so are genuinely peers. She seems like a nice person but i have 0 positive work feedback tbh
