I think he is just testing the waters. Seems like a generous payout for a standard S1. Is he specialized in any particular set of skills?

Public or Industry? There’s a big gap here

In a previous life - when I was promoted to senior in audit at top 5-6 firm, new salary was $63K as S1 (2016). Then S2 was $68k. Felt I was underpaid, but everybody does.

Nope. But I want to treat people fairly so they can fully commit to work

Isn’t industry suppose to pay more?

Hmm thank you guys for the responses. I am in industry paying a S1 for about 90000. Recently he complained a lot about not being paid enough so I am worried.

A staff 1 should be making $50k max!!!! $90k is WAY WAY too high

Your S1 sounds like a brat. I’m an S2 in Seattle making significantly less than that. He needs to suck it up and be grateful.

He is pretty smart and I like him a lot. I have been under budget pressure for a while so this year probably will not get him too much of a raise. Hopefully he understands. Sigh.

OP, trust me when I say your S1 is being paid very very well. I highly doubt even a BIG4 would offer over 90+ for a 1st or 2nd year senior auditor. Idk anyone who is making nearly that much and I live in a high COL area.

If he was in advisory or consulting different story tho but not in assurance

Not sure who else in the company is involved/aware - he's my only point of contact. I'm 6 mths into the job and enjoy it, but this is a major red flag. Should I find a new job or hold my ground and see what happens?

1st Job - 90k…. Is this a good salary? Late to the game at 34. Don’t even know anything about personal finance. Basically feeling like an 18 year old over here with no knowledge of how to run my own life. Having to start over after long term controlling relationship where I was left out of all the finance stuff. So I’m lost TBH. Engineering makes sense, managing my money not so much.
