I am making around $60k as experienced associate. How much of a salary jump can I expect if I exit to industry right now?

^no way associates in industry are making $80K. Probably not a very large bump at the associate level. If you can somehow manage your way into a senior associate position you're probably looking around $85K, but that's for 3-4 years experience. With only 2 busy seasons under your belt (assuming this upcoming one is your second), you're probably looking around $65K - $70K max. And that's NYC. Subtract $10-$15K for smaller markets.

Well if you can find a job that you're qualified for 10-20k. Good luck though

Wait for senior at least.

Switch to consulting, I'm 59k staff 1.

^what market?

Ohio

Typical audit or tax staff 1's are at 50k

For the market it's not a bad package. I'd say look to NYC for greater opportunity if that's of interest. Be prepared for the small living spaces though.

^agree with rsm look for NYC for most $$ and consider living in NJ or Staten Island where you can find rent in the low 1000s instead of 2-3k

^might as well just stay in your home market and live somewhere nice. For low 1000s you're basically living in the ghetto (assuming you're talking 1 bedroom or studio).

80k

I need some advice! Currently in the process of getting a new job but have no idea what to ask for or what I should be making.

I’m currently a senior account manager with 6 years experience but worked abroad for my entire career so I have no idea what I should be making. I don’t have pharma experience but this agency is still interested in me so I’m wondering if what I’m asking for is too high?

Thoughts on this for any fellow RDs?
