If I am 2nd year senior auditor based in Texas making 96K a year, looking to go into private accounting how much more money can I make? What type of positions can I be considered for? Is the work life balance better? Always been in public accounting just started doing research on private.

Salary wise, kind of depends on which type of company you get into. Generally larger ones will offer much better compensation, but expectations can be a lot higher too. Again, every place can be different, I’ve found private to be a lot more stable in terms of WLB and hours.

I just left as (S2) in Texas. I got a lot of low ball offers in the 80s but I finally got one in the 90s with a good bonus and benefits. It’s definitely hard to get a large increase. Also a place may offer you $100 K but will have like 2 weeks of PTO.

I wouldn't think the work life balance or the way would be much higher than what you are making to be honest with you.

They pushed back.

Would have to finance the whole thing myself. Current net worth is 140k. Thoughts?
