As a first year, you don’t have much say in salary as you come in typically paid the same as the rest of your class. You can check other firms since there is a range between starting salaries at different firms.

Thank you!

What area? If it's LCOL / low end of MCOL that might be ok.

like

I meant what area now as in LCOL vs. MCOL, etc. But yeah I think Texas is cheap so guess that could be good enough. Rates in areas I know (DC and NYC) for people who got offers in the last few months are $65k for new associates

like

Sounds fair for Texas.

like

I guess I should add - you could probably get up to $65 if you shop around but I think that’s best case scenario so you’ll have to weight whether it’s worth going through additional interview processes

Internships and masters make no difference. You’re a first year with a clean slate but supposedly huge advantage to excel if you are three years ahead in your own journey of growth.

Thanks for sharing!

3 internships..?

Yes. Just wanted to see if I’m getting something reasonable from a big 4 standpoint and as a first year.

In order for us to give you an answer you would have to tell us what office location you are in. That may be a good offer in Iowa but very low in California.

Just found out that my favorite aunt, who claimed I was her “favorite” niece, chose to leave all her valuables to her other two nieces who never visited or called her once in the last ten years. My aunt passed away suffering from cancer last year and didn’t have her own kids. I was there by her side throughout her battle. I still wish I had done more, made her life easier. I probably sound petty, but a part of me is forcing me to re-evaluate every interaction I ever had with her.
