$65k total comp seems low especially in NYC but is likely because you don’t have a cpa. I know people in public accounting in cheaper COL areas making $65-70k total comp out of school
Not sure what your comp was at previous roles but $75k entry level total comp for accounting sounds par for the course. Given that you have previous experience and were at that comp level previously I would imagine you have some leverage for a raise assuming your firm isn’t under significant financial stress
What did you do for fund onboarding?
Basically would constantly call/email the bank's institutional clients for the fund information (like products being traded, LEI, tax info), compile everything & then send to back office for account opening. We had to do one or two other regulatory things as well but those were more on the side
Tbh you should have a feedback meeting once or twice a year, and if it's negative, you should leave with an action plan for how to improve it by the next meeting, and if it's positive, you should ask for a raise and hint at what the market is paying for someone with your skills and experience.
I'll try that! Thanks so much for the suggestion.
