Hi everyone, I have been planning to leave SALT for a while and wanted to pursue opportunities in fund/property/industry accounting. Does anyone have any insight/advice? I’m also open to any other roles outside of tax.

I’ve been speaking with recruiters, but it can be a bit discouraging because some are telling me that I’m not as strong of a candidate because I have a tax background instead of audit.

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.
