Hello everyone! Im a Tax SA with a CPA. 3 years of experience total. 2 as a staff and 1 as a senior in a MCOL area. Starting to get burned out on the long hours and also realize I may be in a good position to jump ship. What exit salary range should I expect if I made the leap into private/corporate tax ?

Got an offer for SE III at a large tech company. Product I'd be working on interests me and I think I could grow more than in my current role.

Currently I make 180k base and have ISO/RSUs @ startup (60k/yr worth on paper, but won't be worth anything for a few years, if at all).

The offer is:
Base: $166,500
Target Bonus: 10% ($16,650)
RSU: 120k total (30k/yr)

Thoughts on offer? Should I counter?

Additionally there's a yearly target RSU bonus about equal to the cash bonus. Thoughts? 4.5 YOE
