I have 3 years of experience total, 1 year in big 4 audit. Is a staff accountant exit for 80-90k decent or should I stay one more year in PA and then exit?

I’d always say to stay until senior and your opportunities expand exponentially

Don’t exit for a staff accountant position, that would definitely be a waste of your PA experience.

The recruiter said the CFO enjoyed our call, she, the CFO, will call me next week directly to “discuss some final things”.
