Good offer or no? Could exit public accounting as an audit senior associate with one year of experience to an accounting manager role, 100% remote, 105K base + 10-15% annual bonus, 40 hours per week with maybe some light fluctuation for month-end close, they would train me and prep me to move up in the company. Position goes from accounting manager to senior manager to assistant controller to controller.

I have a masters degree in accounting, I'm a CPA, and I have 3 years of PA experience.

I would ask for 5-10k more but take it regardless. After 3 years in private you can jump to assistant controller

Be upfront with your recruiter on the target. He/she would just need to ask the hiring manager. Can’t hurt to ask

What’s your current comp? And are you WFH? That’s a good starting point for comparison

I'm currently WFH but getting pressure to go more in person. And I'm currently at 97K base +3K bonus so it would be about a 15K increase for me, plus getting to avoid another busy season.

You have a CPA and 3 year Big 4 experience. 100k is nothing nowadays

Yeah I’d push for 115k

Fishes, OK so this is true. Wipro is delaying the joining by half a month due to some restrictions or organisational changes & not ready to compensate for that half a month loss of salary. Very rude & absurd behaviour from them. Hence rejecting the offer as such company if u aren't sure when to ask for joining u may revoke the offer letter later on. Hence multiple options in hand is necessary nowadays. Infosys Tata Consultancy HCL Technologies

What’s going on FB friends,

I am contemplating a move to industry working at a VC, Tax Director role east coast. Looks like it will be primarily overseeing compliance with some aspect of advising on structures etc. There is another tax reporting head above me.

The potential comp is the low 200k with a 10% bonus (still higher than what I am making). I feel this is pretty low for VC standards but maybe my standards are also too high. I have generally seen 25% bonus with carry.

Any thoughts?
