2 years generally to senior in Big 4. Range can vary depending on education and tax service line.

It’s in the best interest of seniors to leave to make more money and the good seniors are burnt out and usually don’t want the responsibilities of being a manager with or without the title.

2 years is average. I worked for a firm that liked 3, but most big firms it’s 2. I’m a senior is MCOL and am at $79k right now, just never updated my title.

What route would you guys take in my position?

Goal: Data Science/ML

1. UGA MSBA (likely free)
2. OMSCS/OMSA (possibly work FT aswell)
3. Work FT and find out what I really want to do

Context: Going into final year of MIS degree with CS minor at UGA. Really enjoying classes on hard skills, haven’t taken all the business side classes but so far not as interesting. Interning at KPMG for data analytics rn, haven’t gotten much useful experience. Family may have financial hardship soon.

Resume gap: My position will be abruptly end in December (was informed this week). However, I won't be interview ready in the next 2 weeks. So how bad does a gap of 1-2 months appear to tech recruiters?

Common knowledge is it is a disadvantage to the candidate from a salary negotiation process. I'm also told hiring decisions at places like AWS & GCP take time and it might be a few months before an offer letter is received.

It seems like everyone is in agreement that switching firms gives you a salary boost, but that you could be viewed as someone that doesn’t stick around.
