I’m trying to build a tableau of big 4 starting salaries relative to inflation but it’s hard to find the average starting salaries from a few years ago. If you started before 2021 as a new associate, can you please list your starting salary, the year you started and whether it is HCOL, MCOL or LCOL? Thank you!

Looking for some advice. Second year associate at firm of 25ish attorneys in the Midwest. Looking to make a move and have an attractive offer from a small firm of 6 attorneys. Better pay and work life balance, but I’m concerned for how a firm that small may impact my career options moving forwards and if other firms or in house options down the line maybe frown on such small firms.
