I’ve been noticing the same thing. 2 or 3 years ago it was extremely easy to get a 20% + bump in pay from leaving audit to an industry role after a couple of years. Now that the B4 have upped their salaries drastically, it seems like most industry exit ops are the same pay or slightly less than B4.

That is not common. Unless you’re looking at entry level positions.

Agreed with the above, plus it is VERY late in the game to consider leaving before busy season. If you left now you would risk burning a lot of bridges and giving yourself a bad reputation. I’d wait it out.

Wondering if anyone can share the approximate timeline after applying to Target Corp. to hearing something from them.

Many thanks.
