Yeah I know seniors who were making 120k. You're not getting screwed but you could definitely be getting more.

What salary range should I be looking at?

120k is fine if your building your book. Otherwise it’s a bit low, by 20k

On the low end, I’d wager.

Only by about $30k-$40k

Woah so low

Super duper low. That’s a senior salary at most places in NYC

a beginning senior salary at that

That’s what I made as a first time senior

How many years of experience do you have? This could be a case of getting promoted quickly or staying at one agency for a long period of time maybe ?

That’s just what happens when you get promoted internally. Take your title to your next job, and you should be making $150k+

Is CPA crucial to break into banking?

I am going to work as Audit Associate at KPMG in 2023. I am thinking to stay there for more than a year, then make an attempt into banking. I really hate the CPA exams for its soul-crushing elements. I am rather planning to break into the top MBA programs at the time. I have financial resources to do so but I feel quite mixed after getting the Macc for KPMG position without pursuing the CPA.
