15% is not enough. I would want at least 35%, work at home flexibility, 45 hour weeks max.

Not for 15%

You'll effectively have gotten a pay decrease come next July when you would e gotten promoted to Sr Mgr, though assume the Co would give you a raise by then so maybe not. Ultimately it boils down to what do you want to do with your career? If you're 100% confident it's not be a Partner then it could be a good move assuming the upward mobility is there. Wouldn't make the decision based on $

The $ doesn't make much difference for me right now. I'll get the same at PwC in a year.

Nope.

If you can negotiate the pay up another 10% may be worth it. 15% seems weak though. Especially since you will still be working a ton

Best place to get pre-qualified for a mortgage?

I have some collections on my credit report. One from an electric company for $800 (imo they violated terms of contract and sent me to collections in spite of their fuck up), and an apartment for $80~ that charged me a cleaning fee when my apartment was spotless.

Despite these two collections have a 712-720 credit score.

So mortgage lenders care at all about the collections or is it mostly the credit score that matters?
