You definitely can leave for that salary at this point if you are in Dallas and Houston. IDK about smaller cities. Reach out to recruiters at accounting specific recruiting firms (Parker & Lynch, Vaco) and discuss with them. Only issue will be moving while pregnant...

Ex-consultant now in marketing. Used to be an avid follower here and got great insights on companies when trying to exit consulting so thought I’d try here for advice. Outside of FAANG, what are good large CA-based tech companies that provide good pay, WLB, and culture? DD has great people and WLB, but pay is low and you’re not given the tools and resources to succeed + truly make an impact. Google and Apple are ideal but need backups. Like is Salesforce still good? A company along those lines.
