In my 7th year as senior for Commercial tax, on path to manger this fall, but feel so tired of PA, what is a good industry job choice? I do mostly 1065, 1120 with states returns, limited provision experience since the firm is midsize so not a lot corp work. In nyc making 120k, would non-profit, private equity, or energy company be a good choice in turns of pay rise and wlb? How different will industry job be different from PA? Is there certain skill set I need to obtain first? Thanks

I've been a government attorney for nearly three years now and have worked in the same office/division since I passed the bar.

I know this is meager, but I'm mostly ok with it, I just want to see some recognition. On the other hand, it's hard for me to imagine negotiating because (given my inexperience), I don't feel I'd be able to do better anywhere else. Any advice?
