You’re worth more, min 75k to jump

I agree with this. I got promoted at pwc from a3 to S1 this January Andy salary went to 71.9k

Nope, especially for a CPA.

I was A3 CPA. I left for 40% increase plus bonus + equity. I am in HCOL, so not sure if Midwest region industry jobs offer that much. I think you still go for at least 20% increase.

100% no. I got about a 40% raise from A3 to S1 between my promotion & jump to another firm. Even to industry you should be getting 20-25%

I agree with everyone above saying the money aspect doesn’t sound like the right move.

However, why do you want to leave? Are you looking for work-life balance? Do you hate your team? Do you really like he new company? I personally would not make a decision solely based on money.

I am also A3, Midwest, CPA, PwC and I’m only making 58k lol. I recently applied for a job that I’m qualified for and will get a larger raise than that. Not doing it just for money though.

No. Absolutely not reasonable. Also keep in mind you won’t typically get the same raises you would in PA so when you jump, it needs to be a big bump and a level you’d be happy with for a long time

I made that jump as an A1, so you should get more or wait till promo
