I'm speaking to my current firm and other firms on promotion to Partner or direct admission to Partner. I'm struggling to figure out which consistent questions I should be asking either internally or during interviews around partner compensation.

Other than asking about what the "buy-in" amount is, what other questions should I ask to figure out expected compensation as a partner?

Fyi - this is for advisory/risk assurance practices within public accounting firms.

Ask for last 5 years of compensation performance for your partner peers. This will give you a better idea of recent payout and performance.

Also to add, I could just simply ask what the average partner compensation is, but I feel like that's too vague with too many variables to get a real perspective.

Having an Interview this week, and don't know how high I should set my salary expectations. I currently earn 24k/annum base + comission. Would it be unreasonable to say that I have 30k + comission atm? I think it also hardly depends on the location, I am currently working from Poand but would be working for a swiss company.
