If you're making 61k as a tax senior you're ridiculously underpaid

Ask for 80k. They will anyways come back with a 2 or 3k lower.

DFW?

Dallas Fort Worth

To answer your question. 75k is right at what I made in DFW as a second year senior.

I’m in audit, but I think I made 76k as an S2.

61k?! I’m in tax as well, but in nyc, and started at 70

Are signing bonuses common for experienced hires?

No I don’t think so.

Talk with multiple recruiters and be honest that salary is important to you and they can steer you to the company that pays the most. But sometimes the highest paying is also a nightmare department or they will work you like crazy.

Colleague has put in his resignation. They are offering him whatever he wants to stay including 4days a week work from home. He’s not bluffing and plans to leave. However, at this same time I was asked to begin working as a supervisor for the engineering team and I would get a promotion at the beginning of the year. I have been supervising and managing our team of 6 for months with no extra pay or bonuses. I was told yesterday that raises will be light this year. Yet today they spare nothing.
