It seems like changing companies every 2-4 years is the best way to having your salary increase exponentially. Is this true for audit, specifically B4? Many people in audit tell me to stay till manager so that I can exit into a more senior role, which I don’t doubt, but I feel like the salary wouldn’t be as high compared to someone in my class who has already exited and bounced companies. Also if you recommend jumping companies, how many years should it be till I do so?

You could leave for another firm and then bounce back to your original firm for a pay bump. Employers are paying external hires more money than internal employees. What’s worse is when firms rather pay a huge referral bonus than paying their loyal employees.

Hello Technie's,
I am in a confused state of mind with my current situation & I can surely use some advice from you guys.
I'm working with a product company for almost 5+ yrs now & recently decided to separate from them for obvious compensation reasons.
I have multiple offers now with product/service based companies.
The top and the best offer I have is from a service based organization of almost 100% hike.
Now my company wants to retain me & offering me even higher. What should I do?

UK market is open only for niche skillsets ( Data engineer + analytics). Firms aren't interested in sponsoring rest all skill sets, as they can be filled internally. They have limited quota every year, and are very choosy when it comes to allocation. Preference is first given to EU nationals and then Asians during shortlist stage.

Referral works, but the person who is referring you should have enough clout in the organization to present your profile!
