Currently small market tax Staff making $55k and expecting the 7.5% raise to Senior in October. Could make $70k plus a bonus at another opportunity in town. Would essentially be making 10-15k more this year and likely more money next year to. Other op is not an accounting role and has a path to grow. Thoughts?

Follow the money in your pursuit of happiness and don’t look back. Of course assuming career progression and work culture are acceptable at the new gig.

Promotion in October isn’t typical, how do you know that’s guaranteed? Depends on what role the other op is

We found out last month and promotion goes into effect in October. Other op is asset management. High net worth individuals and small businesses are the main client pool

Personally, I’d stay for a 10k bump unless you hate your job. I never count on bonuses either especially with COVID. I would never also solely follow money in pursuit of your happiness. I almost left as a senior 1 and I am really glad I stayed.

D1, I’m glad I stayed because I eventually moved teams and into real estate. I didn’t realize I enjoyed it more until I got on it, met some awesome people, and really connected with a few partners. Not to mention I had a baby so I got 16 weeks fully paid to be with my wife and kid. Now I have so much flexibility. Like seriously no joke. It’s invaluable to me with a family.

The recruiter said the CFO enjoyed our call, she, the CFO, will call me next week directly to “discuss some final things”.

Not sure if Im hired or not, but are there any questions about the job, comp (cont.)
