In my experience (could be city dependent) corporate/industry hasn’t caught up to the Covid bumps at big 4, I’d have to take a pay cut to leave

You could probably lateral in at same rate but have way better WLB and depending on the company may provide just as good of a learning experience as BIG4.


I spent 2 years at EY, left at (72k) and exited into Corporate at 120k. I have had steady moves since and now am at 145,000 base + 20k+ bonus and I’m in a promotion year.

If you are In a really good company (Fortune 250 Energy, Tech, Banking) you can kill it in corporate and climb fast too! Don’t let people on these threads talk you out of the jump!

I’m less than 5 years into career btw. One more thing about Corporate is some companies push for you to try new roles and gain some professional development opportunities (Learn different skillsets). I was able to go from Big 4 Audit to Treasury where I did Project Finance/Interest Rate Hedging with a lot more exposure than Audit. Now I’m an Infrastructure Developer for the same company.

Hello, I recently was reached out to by an in-house recruiter at a similar but slightly different company than the one I currently work for. The recruiter provided a base range and an OTE range. The lower end of that range is what I am currently making. The higher end of that range is almost 200k more than my current comp. The role is almost identical. I wasn’t looking to move, but that higher end range would set my family up very nicely for our goals. But I am happy at my current company. Help?
