Need some help on evaluating offer. CPA with 5 YOE in HCOL, 2 years B4 external audit 3 years IA at regional firm. Received an offer for $115k plus $45k annual bonus at an investment management firm for $160k total comp for senior role.

Currently a Senior at an advisory firm making $105k with up to 10% annual bonus and am up for promotion to Manager this month. Looking to get out of advisory and move in-house. Manager salary at current firm would be 115-120k with up to 10% bonus.

Seems like a no brainer! You want to go in house, the pay is higher than this level and the next, why not make the jump?

Thank you - I’m just a bit nervous about the job hopping perception down the line. I have a bit of a job hoppy resume, which came up in my interviews and lead to my application being passed on for some roles. But I want to stay in this next role for 5+ years and don’t want to jump around anymore.

Seems like an easy decision. That's a high annual bonus %, does it pay out at close to 100% frequently?

like

Take it

160 for a senior seems excellent. I’d take it !

Seems very good. Is the 45k bonus written guaranteed into your offer or is that the max you can get based on performance of you and the company?

That’s the only thing that gives me pause but if you feel confident on it seems like a great offer

like

Is that’s $45k bonus consistent? That seems sketchy but the rest seems like a great opportunity. The manager position isn’t in hand yet so you don’t know if you will get the $115k min at your current role, but you have a guaranteed $115k already in hand with the potential to make $165k this year vs max $138k. Enjoy your new life.

Stay until Manager and then leave

So I’ve been with a court for a while and honestly the pay sucks compared to what paralegals should be making… the benefits are great though and they match my retirement 100% now that I’m vested at 3 years.I have 4 kids and 1 is getting ready for college. I feel like the benefits are great but I’d rather make more now. I am a previous LEO for 4 years who switched to paralegal so I have my leo retirement. Paralegals here make $28 with no benefits what is a good compromise

Hi Fishes
I want to share very bad experience I had at

I was given offer by Mastercard in month of Dec The hike was less but looking at brand & other perks I accepted the offer & was looking forward to joining them.I got few offers & I went back to them for sole purpose of renegotiating CTC, to have a industry standard hike. They didn't reverted back for 2-3 days & just dropped a mail that they are revoking initial offer as well on grounds that they didn't like i gave other interview

I am getting mails to report to office.
My base location does not have a hot seat.

Should this not be the focus from HR side to get a seat allocated rather than pushing employees to report to a random office that have a seat.?

And On top of that we have to take care of our own commute even when we are in shifts.

Why is this unprofessional and unethical behaviour?
Why is an employee responsible for everything which the HR and PMO is supposed to do??
