I’m currently making $68,500 as a staff 2 in risk (unsure how much I’ll make when I’ll get promoted to a S1 next month). I just got an offer for $85-90k from a start up company for a Sr Sox Analyst position. The additional increase in salary is worth the switch right?

Not necessarily. I stayed around your comp level for a few years but stuck it out and wasn’t concerned about making more money as I wanted to build my career. A Sox analyst is gonna force you to specialize. Are you ready to take that plunge? If so, go for it.

The real question is do you want to do SOX and risk?

Yeah but how many ppl who think they’re going into consulting have accounting exit ops in mind?

If it’s a 500 person startup, cool. If it’s a 10 person startup with no benefits, I’d think twice.

SC1, you have no way to access that information usually. If you do though, then sure, the calculation changes. In my experience, you can’t access that info., so we must go w the info available, which is that the great bulk of the time a tiny startup is crap. No one is arguing there is a tiny percent that will do well. Personally, I don’t like playing lotto with my career. Again though, if you have access to all of these financials that it would be, at least in the great bulk of cases, unrealistic to have access to, sure, maybe worth it.

Yes.

But firm up those numbers, ideally towards the $90k end of $85-90k.

If you like what you are doing now, go be a SOX analyst. If you don’t, go be an accountant.

Is there a bonus on the 90k$?

Depends on the company!

Get a sense of possibility of moving up and how long a promo would take. But I mean it’s a start up you shouldn’t face the hierarchy of industry as much and the issue with getting promoted because of low turn over.
