Hey all I completed 3 busy seasons before taking a 95K offer as a fund accountant at a hedge fund in NYC. Realistically come year end can I ask for a salary increase to 105K? I feel like that would be reasonable given it’s in line with the market rate for someone with 4 busy seasons coming out of public right?

Big raises and promotions are more common in PA than out. You’d probably have better luck getting that salary if you go back to PA.

No Bc you haven't completed 4 busy seasons? Can prob hop back to public as a senior for that rate including sign on bonus though. Just my two cents based on the current market

That is in-line with market rate for 4 busy seasons, but you only completed 3…..

Yes, but not 4 busy seasons. You have 3 busy seasons at a PA company and 1 fund accountant season.

It’s why there’s some incentive to stay a little longer at PA. Your bump coming out is typically higher.
