First year analyst again?

Currently an algebra teacher (best job ever), planning on getting an MSF degree. Suppose I get a boutique IBD gig following my masters. Assuming pay differential is significant, I'd try to lateral into a BB gig after 1-2 years. Suppose all this works out; will I come in as a first year analyst all over again?
