Do it. 2 years is nothing in the grand scheme. And Canada is not bad at all!

I would happily take it. Agreed, there’s a loss in those 2 years but that’s the price of being in EB1 later which is great.

Also, life standards in Canada are pretty good as well. Play the long game !

Also keep in mind that L1 visa is highly scrutinized and I have personally seen few rejections myself. You may end up returning on H1B

Is it with EY Canada or another firm?

Make sure the salary for Canada is 120 USD and not 120 Cad. 120 CAD is not a bad salary but 120USD will be more cash with the current conversion rates. Price for everything is up in Canada right now including rent in the big cities so more you can get would be better for you.

As Canadian desi, welcome to Canada and if you are coming to one of the larger cities, you are likely to love it.

You make $200k as manager 2????

Take it!

are you on H1B? Did you check if they do h1b and eb1 at ur firm

What did you eventually end up doing? I am in similar situation as yours.

Interested to know average salaries
of an Assistant Manager in
Purchasing (London based).
I was promoted from Supervisor to
Assistant Manager within the last
month, prior to my previous
manager being replaced. This is my
second promotion in just under a
year at the company. Based on the
salary I feel undervalued and
demotivated (I'm on just over £30k
and have 3 direct reports in a team
of 12), particularly as my efforts to
negotiate my salary were shot down.
Any advice would be welcomed.

I am currently working in Deloitte but have signed a PwC offer. Just realized my current salary after the compensation release is $2k higher than PWC. Before I signed the offer, PWC told me the experienced associate salary can’t be negotiated. What should I do right now? It feels sad to see 2k leave me for no reason. Should I talk to PWC and ask for a raise?
Please help!!

How tough is it to break into a FAANG PM role at mid-level if you have less prestigious experience?
