Got an offer at the end of last week for a senior accountant role in industry, pays $95k with a solid bonus. I’m currently making $85k in public, but I feel like I’m learning more here. Do you think it’s worth leaving for less stress or sticking it out for better career growth?

Is it remote

Too low, wait a little

They will make more than that in the next 1-2 years at B4. And it will only continue to increase steadily at B4 thereafter, whereas the $95k for an industry accountant isn't going to have anywhere near the same growth. Just saying - if it's about the money, B4 is clearly the winner

Do you want to work in industry or PA?

It all depends on your personal goal. If you think you can still handle the stress and long working hours in public, maybe staying for another 1-2 years until you make a manager will give you an even higher salary when you move to the industry. But if you don’t think being in public is aligned with your personal goal or you feel too much pressure or stress, definitely make a move now. It’s your call mate.

Need a sanity check here.

When I joined my current company, we were on a quarterly bonus structure with guaranteed payouts each quarter. This was, in fact, how the recruiter said he could meet my salary request.

The company just announced we are moving to annual payouts only, with no payments for 2023 until May 2024. There are no raises happening.

This amounts to 12% less money in my pocket in 2023 plus inflation.

Is this standard, or should I be looking for opportunities elsewhere?

Or can I actually find a senior PMM role that allows a bit more room to breathe?
