Hearing all these stories about PwC getting mega increases and I’m just like, are there any table scraps leftover for the back office people? 😢 I haven’t gotten a raise in 2 years and my last one was only $3,200. How can a senior survive 😭

I am sorry :/

It’s a tough reality for most that non-revenue generating roles are typically not appreciated by the broader firm / management

I'm in the same boat as you op. Currently non client facing. Got a 4% raise 2 years ago and nothing since. I'm transferring to advisory in a few weeks and hoping to get a fat client facing raise this year.

Yep. Only partners are appreciated here… and most of them are direct entry from elsewhere lol

You are considered overhead. No business wants to increase that.

I am not sure why some posts say the back office are non revenue generating. Support staff are, but I worked for PWC back office preparing tax returns & our hours were charged to the client. PwC in Tampa grossly underpay tax preparers.

Why would you get anything more than inflation? That’s the standard for overhead roles (including industry accountants.)

@P1 much more replaceable than good staff

I hope you get something this round. If not, might be time to look around. Not client facing and we got a whole 1% a few months back, but something every other year. Waiting on this years % and if promotion went through.

Hello, I recently was reached out to by an in-house recruiter at a similar but slightly different company than the one I currently work for. The recruiter provided a base range and an OTE range. The lower end of that range is what I am currently making. The higher end of that range is almost 200k more than my current comp. The role is almost identical. I wasn’t looking to move, but that higher end range would set my family up very nicely for our goals. But I am happy at my current company. Help?
