that sounds on the extreme high end. That maybe higher than some M1s in certain BUs.

Super high. I am a manager 1, tax, and my salary is 110

Salary also varies by location, practice area and your credentials

It would have been considered high a year ago, but in the current market I’d say it’s about average. I’m in a LCOL and recruiters are offering close to that to get seniors to jump ship.

I can assure you it is real.

Lol, yes

Yeah, only seniors in LA I knew making over 110 were LLM and a couple transfer pricing guys with advanced degrees.

BDO caps you at just under 100K so I’d take that

If your an experienced staff or senior with hedge- fund experience and want to move to Dallas, DM me to discuss discretely. Honestly great team. Turnover has been low for last 18 months at 10%.

I am curious how Onesource Income tax stacks up against it's competition.

Compliance question here, I have always thought of the SALT deduction on the fed return as a perm item & have treated as such in such sch M-3. I see that some people put it as a temp on sch M-3. What is the justification for treating it as a temp on the M-3. You don’t set up a deferred on the def RF for the state tax deduct & it is also a rate impacting item (I know that some temps can be rate impacting). But this all leaves me to side with perm. Does anyone know the logic behind temp treatment?
