@PWC1 How many years in are you? I hope to make senior this year and will be only 10-15% up from my base pay. 😑

This is my 4th year at Pwc (I.e. First year senior here).

@PWC1 Damn I need to switch firms

You'll get there, started at 51k and at 73k now with a raise in a few weeks :) been here for 4 years and had 3 raises and about to get my 4th raise :)

@Deloitte1 jeez averaging 13% raises that's impressive!

@BT1 what are the typical raises at BT?

Yeah I have been pretty lucky and they recognize the fact that I put forth effort and try to learn, I try to never have anyone show me how to do something twice :)

Started at 50K base and now I'm 83k after 4 years

I started in accounting industry 5 or 6 years ago as an intern at grant Thornton making 50k. I am now a manager making 120k...think that is good enough improvement?
