Following.. curious to see other firms as I feel like I’m significantly under paid
1. large regional firm in upper Midwest
2. S1
3. 64k, 3% to 6% annual bonus
4. 5% (with another raise coming in Jan)
5. Yes, last fall

like

Thanks for your input!

At PwC your TC will undoubtedly be over $100k for S1 and above. I am an S1 in what PwC defines as a T3 city (LCOL) and I know my peers in HCOL cities earn around $10k more. I’d assume all Big 4 firms are similar. The only smaller firm with similar comp is A&M, TC at Associate level there (Big 4 Senior) is around $130k.

I’m not totally sure but at S1 at big4 (non-PWC) it sounds like should be over 90k to 100k for MCOL and maybe 110 for HCOL?

What the fk. I was a M1 in NYC making 130k last year.

1. PwC
2. S2
3. 95k (mcol/lcol)
4. 25% +10% annual bonus (better than I hoped on the base/worse on the bonus)
5. Nope

like

What cohort are you in? S2 at 95k seems low.

1. Top 10 (Midwest)
2. Senior Manager
3. $205K plus bonus
4. N/A - first year
5. Switch from Big 4

like

I think it was about $75K.

Dang for advisory that seems low. What city? If this is Chicago, that’s insane. If its another city, a little less insane

Minneapolis

This was a few years ago and haven’t been with this firm in a few years, but figured I’d share for reference.
1. BDO
2. S2
3. $90k (Midwest) - if I use the inflation adjusted calculator, that’s roughly $98k in today’s dollars
4. 8% raise, 8% bonus

You’ll likely start at $85k for S1, but $90k is possible. Signing bonus was about $7k if I recall. That’s more negotiable than your salary after getting an offer.

Tech advisory
3 YOE - Senior Associate, tier 3 city
135k + 15k sign on
Moved from a different B4

No I left PwC to go to kpmg. Pwc would have been 108k

Im interviewing for an internal promotion at my current employer. I’ve previously expressed a lot of interest in this specific role and it’s well known throughout my division my interest. Even though I’ve conducted informational interviews before now to get a feel of the role, now that I’m going through the full interview process, it doesn’t seem like what I want to do any more. I’m considering withdrawing my application, but I’m afraid of the optics and future career at this company. Thoughts?

Feel like audit scheduling is always done on a knifes edge in that the timeline and staff schedules are enough so that if everyone works 60 hour weeks and no issues are identified then it can be filed on time. But even small things that increase the work can wildly throw off the schedule and cause hours to skyrocket for the staff on the job. No real point here, just ranting.
