I switched from audit to analytics consulting, but feel like all I do is make dashboards all day and am looking to return to accounting.

My base now is 120k with 3yoe in audit and 1 in analytics, how much of a pay cut would I be looking at to go to FDD?

Depends what level but S2 would be a raise at pwc for HCOL and EY may bring you in around that.

No idea for KPMG and Deloitte or mid tier

OP, you are not going to be brought in as a S2 lol. S1 at most

120k with 4 years of exp ? In HCOL? I’m at a similar amount of exp and will prob be around the same pay range soon as raises are announced (I’m in FDD ) there is also a big demand for analytics M&A but might be similar to what you are doing like making dashboards

I’m in Dallas so MCOL, but my group does not give COL adjustments as it is a national staffing model. How long have you been in FDD?

Would you be interested in analytics supporting only FDD and Strategy engagements? We have this at KPMG and all the other big 4 have it, even Houlihan Lokey and A&M.

Working alongside FDD would give you a chance to keep using your skills and still see if you really want to do accounting/FDD.

Agree, our GTA practice is trying to grow. We also just started a TAG office in Dallas. Shoot me a dm if you want to hear more.

I'm at a national firm and we have a Dallas office. In FDD you would probably come in at around 100-105. Big 4 will pay more but not sure their average hours.

Your current comp & yoe are on par with market. Might get a pay bump if switch firm, plus sign on bonus.

We have deals analytics. Have worked with them on a number of tech deals not sure what else they do but Dm if interested in referral

I am a 5 year experienced developer and am applying for position as a developer in bank. I have cleared the assignment, interview and soft skills. I next have an offer interview scheduled but it’s with the IT chapter lead and the Manager instead of the recruiter. That feels bit weird and I feel they would talk me on a low salary because I am “not so experienced”. I did interview at another company earlier and they refused to pay the salary I asked for because I wasn’t senior enough. Any tips ?

Should I stop taking interviews because I just left my old job 1.5 months ago? Only reason I switched was because of the 48% increased pay and I don’t love what I do. I wanna be in a different industry & role and some companies reached out to me to interview and one will pay me 31% more for base and with bonus, it’s 57% more than current pay if I get it. That job really excites me cuz of what I’ll be doing. But I know it’s not a good look if I switch again. Idk what to do. Please advise.
