How are annual raises in industry compared to Big 4? Big 4 from my time here is around 6-12% market & merit increases. How much less is industry? Any way to know this info for a specific company other than asking internal hiring managers/employees?

Considering the move with a 30% pay bump, but want to make sure in a few years it still makes sense in terms of comp. Tech risk SL.

Did you get 6% this year? That 6-12% increase is generally done to get you caught up to industry salaries that you have forgone for over a decade. Make the jump, your pockets and mental health will thank you

Yes. Average 8% over last three years. It would still take me over 2 more years to get to the new offer at industry. And after 2 years in industry I’ll likely have a better opportunity to move again for higher or internal promote. Seems more appealing overall.

Probably expect inflation adjustments to base, but more lucrative annual cash bonus. I recently moved to industry and annual cash bonus target is approx 30-35% of base

It was ~2% at F100 oil and gas. I’m one of rare weirdos who left industry for EY.

You are not alone. I will definitely considering going back to PA after my 401k got fully vested. My current employer is pushing for RTO 5 days and slower salary & career progression comparing the my counterparts in PA.
