I was offered a staff 2 role in EY FAAS TAAG. Currently 10 months in audit at another big 4. The salary increase is $10k, work aligns more with my interests, and there doesn't seem to be a busy season. Would you make the switch?

TAAG is very narrow and technical. With only 10 months of audit I would just ask how you can get exposure to different topics and widen the base. Would be my only concern. But faas is a good practice and TAAG is a good group so good opportunity

100% I’m in the middle of making the switch as well since my audit team are being assholes about it

TAAG supports audit with various technical memo’s and support so they do get busier during busy season though you have more ability to push back if at capacity so not as bad as audit busy season.

Yes won’t compare to audit and you’ll probably mostly work 40-45 but there will be times you’ll be working 50-60+ but won’t last for more than a few weeks. If they said otherwise, they lied to you.

I would try and negotiate the salary a bit more, but I think it’s a good move to make.

I was $75 as A2 in hcol so think you’re doing good. Also you’ll get your senior promo and bonus so expect another 20% bump in pay then.

Hey All,
I finished a third round interview, and HR contacted me that afternoon saying I had positive feedback across the board and they would contact me the next day regarding next steps. It’s been two days and they finally get back to me saying they haven’t been able to sync with the hiring manager but will keep me posted. Honestly I wish they would talk with the hiring manager and then let me know the decision instead of checking in. It’s messing with my emotions.

Hi guys,

I need genuine suggestions. I was holding offer from IBM and Wipro & now have got a good offer from a mid size organization.
I want to negotiate with IBM and Wipro & join any of these two.

Do these companies negotiate? When & how should I start negotiation with them ?

I would like to talk professionally so that they provide me a matching CTC or in case, they can't at least they don't block me for future openings.

Please suggest, if anyone can share their experiences.

Offering advice to job seekers who go around recruiters and message hiring teams, execs, etc. You are putting the Recruiters job in danger. If a Recruiter declines you or doesn’t choose to reach out, it is because the hiring team declined you, or you don’t have the experience. You will most likely not be considered for future roles because of this. When I see people giving advice to reach outside the Recruiter, it’s bad advice. Very rare is this a good idea.
