Does anyone have a general idea of what a staff accountant should make in CA? (San Diego area) Currently an A2 wanting to leave public. I know everyone says to wait until senior but I'm at a breaking point this year and want to leave asap.

Make senior and jump. Or apply to senior roles (which will be a lot easier if you already have the sr title). You’re close. If you’re planning on staying in accounting, then it’s worth it. If you’re jumping industries, then disregard my advice. The sr title won’t matter as much

Hi Fishes,

I was offered RSUs for the first time as part of my compensation. I think I understand the concept as such but there are a few intricacies I was looking to clarify. Could anyone let me know if my grant date is 9th nov, 2022 and vesting period is 1 year, will I get RSUs allotted at the price of stock on grant date or vest date (in this case 9th nov, 2023)? Happy to connect in DMs as well

Thank you for your time!

Hello! I’m gearing up for my year end comp conversation and I’d like to be a better idea of what people are making to ask for a raise.

UPDATE (RE: SoCal Assistant Controller Interview)

So after two weeks of waiting (and giving up on the idea of getting the job really), the recruiter got back to me.

They said due to month-end and quarter-end close they were busy and couldn’t get back to me as quickly for a “good update”.

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.)
