I’m about to be a senior at PwC in either December or May. I am in a HCOL planning to work from home for at least for FY22. I make roughly 80k as a A3 and I was wondering what would a new S1 in HCOL make and also would it be the right time to start looking for that sought after cushy industry job? Third, how much should I expect leaving PA to industry in HCOL I want to work in a hybrid finance/accounting role. Thank you!
