Looking to leave public accounting after 4 busy seasons. Was told I would have been promoted to manager this year if not for being a remote worker. What should my salary expectations for applying elsewhere be? I don’t want to take a pay cut but want to be realistic when job hunting. Do I look for jobs with better hours but less pay? I feel under paid now so am hesitant to do so

Maybe don't be a remote worker? You said it yourself - that is what kept you from getting promoted.

Maybe lame but you’re not the one making the decisions and rules.

Not sure being remote and not promoted to manager go hand in hand. Feel like they’re picking a reason that they think you’d buy into

It does feel like an excuse. It might make sense at a higher level where market presence might be needed, but not from senior to manager.

funny

It’s not a guarantee to promoted to Manager at five years. Ever heard of Super Seniors?

OP, did they tell you that from the jump or just now. If just now, they pulled an okie doke on you. I'd be like, why wasn't this shards with me sooner? BS excuse TBH but that what they do. SMH

Is it common to negotiate software engineer salary at smaller companies? I know it’s common at FAANG, but what about for companies with around 200 engineers? I have a counter offer from my current company and on-site interviews scheduled for end of July with google and Amazon, but I’d prefer to go with the smaller local company if I can negotiate the salary (from offer letter) up another 5% or so.
