This is a list of the stat adjustments for each job in Final Fantasy Tactics. Whenever you change jobs, the unit's base stats will be modified based on the adjustments specifically for the job they're changing into.

Growth vs. Adjustments Differences

Growth When Leveling Up, Adjustments When Changing Jobs

While stat growths and adjustments may look similar, there is a massive difference between the two. Stat growths are used to determine how much a unit's stat is increased when leveling up, while stat adjustments will modify the base stats of the unit to suit the job.

As an example, a unit that was leveled up mainly as a White Mage will have high base HP and MP because of the job's stat growths, but as soon as they change jobs to a Dancer, it will be heavily lowered to match the job's stat adjustments.
