I currently have 3 years of public accounting experience. One year as a senior associate. I'm getting really tired of busy season, dealing with changing to different teams where I have to start over from scratch. I think I may be ready to look into other jobs.

I am currently fully virtual (although PwC is becoming increasingly pushy about trying to get everyone back into the office). I would like my new position to be fully virtual, pay 115-125K, and have good WLB (40 hours). Reasonable?

S2 in HCOL working in PA with that salary is reasonable especially if you hop firms. But WLB? IF it’s PA again that you’re looking for, no. Industry? Maybe. Fully virtual nowadays is hard

Fully virtual roles are very competitive because there are less of them now. You may have to have patience and a longer timeline that you originally anticipated.

Try resource management. You’ll likely be brought over at your current salary, whatever that is

Not reasonable, no. But there are a couple of those jobs out there. Will be extremely difficult to get.

Not reasonable. But you can certainly investigate.

I'm definitely looking. So far, it seems like it's possible in the 105-115K range.
