Looking for help picking between two roles.
1) Senior Technical Accountant for a Public company. $6+ Billion annual rev. $140k base,
$15k sign on.
2) Financial reporting senior for a $1 Billion in rev private company. $155k base, no signing bonus but 5% annual bonus. Equity package, with potential IPO. My biggest hesitation is I'm not sure how long-lasting I see there service to be.
Thanks

Option 2 without a doubt. Equity + Pre IPO is the golden ticket.

That’s fair. I just have my own personal doubt about them actually going public. I would bet they’d be acquired first

Thanks for the vote. I assume it’s mostly due to the extra comp? If the comp were closer to equal would you change your vote?

Congrats on your offers! Mind sending a referral if they are open positions still? Tax senior here in Central region.

I’d highly recommend that. IRS would love your skills and you’d get your time back in spades.

Are they remote or hybrid or fully in person?

Also just curious, how many YOE do you have? I’ve started looking at jobs similar to that.

Thank you very much. Yea, it’s highly competitive. I got beat out on several roles by people who had 2+ years of being a manager. I think $125k is doable at your experience level, but finding that, fully remote, will take some time.

Is this HCOL?

Yes, I’m in a HCOL area. Not NYC or LA level, but still in that HCOL band

Those salaries are low. Transfer to advisory, either CMAAS or Deals, do another 2 years and then look again. Get your CPA if you don’t have it

Luckily both roles have a middle ground role between it and manager. So some room to grow in the coming years, if I don’t make manager quickly. But good point!
