I had about 6 years experience at big four auditing mostly PE and hedge funds, left as a manager and switched to industry, have been working at my current job in fund accounting (PE) a little over a year. If I want to switch my job an a year, what salaries range I am looking at? Is it very competitive to find a good paying senior level job? On a separate note, the main reason that I am considering a new job is wlb which still not that good. Do 9-5 jobs really exist at my level with a good pay?

How do you define good pay and what are you trying to pivot to?

My all in comp was 165k last year (also should mention that I work in NYC). I would love to make 200k eventually but as I mentioned before with better WLB.
