Any IT Audit managers at Big 4 moved from London to California or any other global city in the US, is it worth moving if money is the deciding factor? Am a manager in London living just myself who would be happy to live in a shared accomodation.

What is the salary range to expect for an IT Audit manager at Big4 in California.

Would imagine the range is significant. At a guess you’ll be in the region of 175ish to 200k. I’m a senior in the north east of the US in IT Audit. Our range is huge I think 100k to 165k. If you’re only moving for money I would think twice. The US is great - but so is London. Plus the US is very expensive. I haven’t lived in London though in fairness.

There’s a lot to unpack with this seemingly simple question. Think twice and hard if you’re only moving for money…California is expensive and your standard of living will largely be the same as London.

Other things to think about with an international move:
- visa and employment authorization
- taxes (not just on what you’ll be making, but any other investments or retirement you already have)
- independence concerns being in audit
- culture shock.
- work life balance

Thanks for your insights. Am up for ILR/PR in a few months. Perhaps I would wait for my Brit passport, and take a L1A route.

Though money is the deciding factor I also want to work in US after working in the UK for 6 years. Want to face new challenges. I have a plan of going back to my home country in 5 years so thought I could stay in US for 3 years.

Hello fishes, recently I have received the job offers from Akamai & Nasdaq with kind of equivalent pay. I've an experience of 2.7 yrs in Java Backend. In Nasdaq, I feel the project is slightly on better side and also domain driven in comparison of Akamai. The only thing that is troubling me is 90 days notice policy in Nasdaq. Just want to check if it's a bad thing or would it still be worthy against the project & domain.

Hi Fishes,

I received an offer (28 Lakhs + 3.9 Lakhs incentive) from Novartis for Sr Project Manager yesterday. This was just 13.6% more than my current earnings as Project Manager. I've given the reasons why I deserve at least 30% to HR. In response to that, HR has sent 2nd offer i.e. 29 Lakhs + 4 Lakhs incentive + 50k sign-on bonus. The 2nd offer is just 18.2% higher than my current earnings. Need your suggestion, if I could still negotiate with HR to finalize deal by asking for 25% hike?
