What firm? Super solid for experienced manager

I made over $300k my last year as SM in a specialty that is transaction related in Washington National Tax and I wasn’t even VHCOL.

Near 250 is a better high end

I think it depends if you’re an attorney or cpa but I don’t believe either make over 300k

I hope so

Id assume so. Experienced SMs in MCOL are at 250 ish

Every firm seemingly has a different SM place in hierarchy, EY is level before partner, I wouls be shocked if they werent at 300k if not much higher if you’re about to make partner

I would think so. Had a former SM in mm firm making close to 300k base in MCOL.

What firm?

SM2 in TTA at 250k in low cost. Always assumed it was higher in other markets

Any craft beer brewers here?

In the last two year I’ve gotten more and more into alcohol free beer. The selection in my country (Europe) is still small and mainly driven by the big brands (e.g. Heineken). My idea is to start my own small brewery which only produces alcohol free beer as a bit of a pendant to the booming local craft beer industry. Any thoughts on that idea or someone who has experience in the market?
