Caution post: There is a lot of low balling happening on compensation side right now for tax principles, tax director and senior tax managers. I have seen a firm with two principal retiring and replacement is a senior tax managers to replace two people with lower level pay & additional responsibilities. PE backed firms are hiring tax principles with comp level for an experienced senior tax managers. At national cpa firm principle pay is about 1/3 to 40% of the book you are asks to oversee.

Name the firm or practice. Is this core compliance or specialty tax? I just had a colleague lateral as a sm for $280k in HCOL.

$280k for HCOL for a SM tax compliance is good. Recently We have managing directors who get paid less than that in HCOL. The firm gave them a better title for the sm pay and told them they are considered new tax principles under this new alternative practice structure. New tax partners used to get minimum $400k+ in HCOL areas in partnership model. We have partners/principal who get paid cash $1.5 to $2 million a year.

Recruitment can’t tell me what feedback is creating this gap but also won’t stop mentioning the positive praise and feedback the team had for me.
