@ACN1 I Left the firm making 65k and went to BAH making 90k with a promotion. My senior manager tried to get me to stay, but i was on a terrible client and had a bad manager, so i told him unless he could get rid of those two things i would pass. On a two week vacation right now before i start booz with zero regrets

But with the information we have unless you are in tax and audit you should be getting more from big 4

It's only too low if you have better offers for the same role, same city. Otherwise it's a paycheck while you find something better.

3. Work life balance depends on Project and managers you work with
4. Inside opportunities if you're the creamy layer
5. PF amount in offer letter is the total deduction and not just company's contri
