Is it true that there are no salary negotiations in public accounting? I am moving from staff 1 to staff 2 and received a good performance review. How do these comp meetings typically work?

When I was promoted, they presented a salary figure, and said "what are your thoughts?" I took that as an open invitation to express dissatisfaction (it was actually a fair salary), but the increase agreed to above what they offered wasn't material.

EY 1 nailed it.

Smaller firms are a little different. After at least two years, if you feel you are being offered something significantly below market, you should present your case when the time for pay discussions comes around.

It may seem obvious, but in my experience partners value trial experience over anything else, so get it however you can. For example, my firm will favor a former prosecutor who has seen the courtroom a lot but has no civil litigation experience (not even a depo) over a seasoned associate who has only second chaired cases with a partner but hasn’t tried a case. Even trying a case and losing gives you credibility at my firm because you still did it.
