US in general pays higher, and taxes less, than pretty much every other country. So as much as it may suck for you, you can't really compare your salary to US ones. You could always move south and reap the benefits. Otherwise, yah, you're pay is going to be a lot less than what you often times see on here

2017 range shows as 122k to 183k for SM at EY. I know I'm at the low end but figured it's because I'm new to the role and grew up at the firm since graduating uni with no specific tech skillset. But now I'm thinking I got to get out.

You are between 45 and 60k underpaid based on pay scales in US.

I have a similar profile and make $205k base with Accenture.

You think it's worth trying for a big bump now before the next pay cycle or just take off with my almost 12 years consulting experience at a big 4 and see what's out there. And yes remember I'm in Canada.

Is that 126K C$?

Yes cad dollars

I’m a mid level engineer and my team is overwhelmed. There’s more work than we can complete in the timelines that leadership/product has committed to, which is causing leadership to override technical decisions seemingly to meet those deadlines. An example would be routing all live traffic to a feature which was not fully tested, instead of waiting until testing is complete or having that change be dormant and the feature enabled later. Has anyone dealt with this type of issue?
