Hi all
Few months back, I accepted @pwc india's offer but didn't join.
Now I was referred for @pwc US but as I was applying for the job, the portal shows previous application with status as offer accepted.
Will pwc consider me again?
Does anyone have any idea on this?
Has someone accepted the offer but didn't join and later joined again after some months?
Please let me know
Any inputs will be helpful
Thanks!

Ask for 115k
Would ask the recruiter for the range first and then shoot for the higher end of it.
That’s high for a staff position even in HCOL areas.
Would need to know your location and group to gauge whether that ask is reasonable
Definitely not unreasonable. They are willing to overpay to get people in the door so keep that in mind . If you join, they make up for your high starting salary with poor raises, so get as much as you can

Doubtful you get that. Maybe VHCOL

A TC2 from BDO wanting much higher than TC2s who started at Deloitte lol
Based on the responses it looks like you asked for the right amount. Better than asking for too little.
I’m surprised people are saying that’s high. Maybe for tax consultants particularly? I and all the consultants I know are at 95k + hired this year in HCOL but not VHCOL

Depends where you are. For your reference I am in VHCOL starting full time in June and my starting salary is 80K
As a tax consultant entry level.
You’ll likely only get that much if in VHCOL. TC2 is 1 full year of experience, likely between 65-75k depending on COL.

Sounds high for TC2
I joined as senior at 96 pre pandemic in international tax in MCOL
My raises after that were pretty bad though
I think it’s fair unless your in very HCOL city. It’s definitely high for TC2, but you should target high.
