Does it make a difference if I leave big 4 into a BB middle office/front office job after 1.5/2 years in terms of career progression & salary-wise?

Once again thank you & happy to hear many more advices or insights from you/anyone.

I'm the guy who replied to you. It would definitely be great if you can enter something like transaction advisory. For career progression, I can't say much because that depends on the individual. But salary-wise, the advantage is that as an experienced hire, you have more room to negotiate your salary as compared to someone who was a fresh hire in the bank.
