For those who left PA after a year as a senior, what was your base salary % increase? Until recently, I thought I’d be able to stick it out until manager, but I don’t think I can handle more 95+ hour weeks during busy season (perks of SALT AWM) or anything near that.

I left after a month of senior and got like 55% raise. You don’t need to stay a full year in this market.

Woah 👌

This group is just so beyond overloaded that 80 hour weeks during busy season are considered “light”. Even post 9/15 and 10/15, i already start dreading hours picking up again in February. I don’t think I can make it more than a few more months. And I’ve been here for under 2.5 years.

Never too late! I switched from tax to advisory after first year as a senior for similar reasons. Couldn’t take another 70+ busy season (although def not as bad as 90+). Just need a good referral and to market those nice transferable skills. Happy to chat more on my experience if you wanna DM

Two of my friends left within a year of becoming seniors and got $35K and $40K raises in base salary. They also got a decent chunk of SBC.

Most of my friends left for $20-30K more, but I had a few that left for as little as 10K because they couldn’t handle working at Big 4 any longer. Getting weekends off and logging off hours earlier on a daily basis has been worth it in their books
