No regrets. Best? Depends on the person

Depends on the group, but advisory is the way to go. From associate to manager I've consistently made a lot more money than audit/tax counterparts and work A LOT less than they do.

Agreed with EY1. But prob not gps tho

If you are in audit, then consider switching to FDD. Great pay and interesting work that always changes.

I have seen BB IB exits and front office PE. It’s doable but rare

FDD/Deal Advisory

Why?

Hello everyone!
I recently found out that I was being paid less than everyone in the team (more than 25% gap to more expe teammates, around 15% less than new hires)
We all had the same responsibilities, I consider I even had a heavier workload (talking in past tense since I very recently made an internal move).
Things to consider:
On a work visa
Non-white
Non-male
What would you recommend doing?
Keeping it to myself?
Speaking up? How? With who?

-TIA

I left Audit at a midsize firm to join KPMG erp implementation consulting about 6 months ago. So far they seem to only want to staff me on projects with a heavy focus on technical accounting and audit. Spoke to a lot of others who have left and seems like being pigeonholed or staffed on projects not related to the actual core work of the practice is the common reason. I've been on the fence about whether I should stay and hope to be staffed on better projects in the future or leave soon...
