I was wondering what position did you end up taking.  I recently transitioned from a BA to a data warehouse manager.  While I am not a senior data warehouse manager at all, in fact pretty green it feels go to transition and get paid more money.  Where I work it's fairly easy to go from associate ba to ba in about 1 - 2 years and senior ba 5-7 years, but after that you top out usually unless you get with product or account management team.  That doesn't happen very often.  Due to the nature of my team I am fortunate to get this opportuntity.  

Just curious what the senior members have transitioned into since being a BA?
