About 10 seniors and a few staff in philly tax got together. We discussed our comp and have decided to simultaneously quit if our raises are not greater than at par to make up for the crap year last

It is:

1. Interesting that the OP is uncertain about the exact number of people that got together as evidenced by the usage of “About 10.” Such uncertainty reveals the overzealous nature to quit prior to having performed a thorough analysis of all potential actions and their resulting consequences, and

2. Also difficult to all simultaneously quit as that would require the respective number of HR personnel and a certain door width to allow for all to simultaneously walk-out.

You will quit without a job? Get real that is very stupid. Make smart choices about your career and not over a few thousand dollars at a low level. I wouldn’t hire you if heard why you left because your a shit stirring trouble maker. Everyone is replaceable especially now that everyone works remotely.

I'd love for you guys to win something out of this. I am rooting for you, but I think your best case is they offer you all like a blanket 3-5% extra bump to calm down. Otherwise I really do think they will probably just roll the dice and let you walk.

They may give you a bump, but I can almost guarantee they will start phasing everyone out.

It might work. They might throw you a few extra bucks, is a move like this for a couple thousand dollars really worth it?...more likely it wont work, this is big 4, they will be fine without all of you...they have thousands of staff and seniors worldwide they can fly in.

Depending on their needs they might be happy to lose 10 in the headcount. I've been to meetings where leadership complained people are not quitting fast enough

like

Senior Manager 3, that would be quite funny indeed.

However, in practice if the firm/company had only one offer to extend, but had found five qualified candidates within the recruiting window, that firm/company would reach out one at a time in descending order starting with the most qualified candidate, effectively employing a Right of First Refusal option with each candidate.
