Industry is more what you make of it. You will make a lot more than fdd if you do well but fdd on average probably pays more
What jobs would pay more long term if you do well? Curious
Are you judging based on the advertised range? I would do the initial recruiter screen and throw out your number and see if they flex. I’ve had companies go pretty far above the range to get the right person in the role. But I do think this bargaining power strengthens as you move up.

In most cases you will get a pay cut from FDD. Unless it’s anything Investment banking/private equity related. You can lateral to restructuring/consulting practices but that will only be a slight increase (unless A&M).
Anything else FP&A, Corp Dev, Accounting, etc. probably a paycut or similar pay. Unless you get significant equity and depending on size of company.

I’m in industry, pulling 130k base (+bonus +equity) after leaving FDD as a senior. HCOL.
If I give up equity, I’d expect at least a 200k comp package. Definitely doable if you network + have a stacked resume
