This is exactly what happened to me. I was a team lead at my old job and I interviewed as a senior dev but got offered a standard dev position. In the end they offered me the same money as what I was making as a team lead so I took it and have never looked back! The reduced pressure and better work-life balance are so good. I now earn much more than I did at my old gig so 🤷♂️
