I got offers for technical accounting manager positions with 3YOE but comp was too low @ 130k

Thanks for the replies. Technical accounting is something I've enjoyed in audit so that was the main motivator

Technical accounting seems to be a great path if you like the work. Can always go back to auditing if need be

I'm an A2 so idk how much you care about my exp but I'd take it if I were you, or move into more technical acctg and away from Audit regardless of where. More pay, and more chill ive heard.

Absolutely not. Wait til S2 promotion at least. My offers from the summer after S1 promotion to summer after S2 promotion increased by 30%. Threshold for leaving should be at least 25-30% as once you’re out your looking at low to mid singles /yr.

Which city? MCOL or HCOL?

For those of you have left, what kind of questions did you ask yourself to know it was the right time?

I have a few questions for people in consulting roles (both external/internal).

My partner is in corporate banking, but he wants to switch to a consulting/strategy-based role. I noticed people with those jobs typically have an MBA, and also majority of the job ads in similar roles has MBA as either a requirement or preferred qualification. So:

1) does MBA actually improve someone's chance in getting those roles?
2) are there any good Canadian MBA programs you'd recommend?

Thank you all!
