Thinking of leaving PwC and applying at another big 4 for the group I actually want to be in (individual tax return) I am a first year. Any advice?

Before you leave for another Big 4, you may want to actually research if the other Big 4 firms actually have a large individual tax returns client base. My understanding is that most of the tax work you will be doing will be related to corporate taxes. I would also talk to your coach 1st and explore opprotunities within the firm 1st. As a 1st year, your experience might be limited in making a decision right now that you only want to do individual taxes.

You should probably try and get a year or two under your belt or you may delay your progression at the new firm. But do what feels right

hello! I’m looking to get some insight to see if I’m being paid fairly for where I’m at in my career. I’ve worked at the same company for 2.5 years. This is my first job out of college. Started as an HR Admin, basically in a call center for all HR related inquiries and now am a Sr Admin assisting with escalations, interviewing, training new hires, supporting my team, scheduling, keeping track of stats- phone calls, tickets resolved, etc. I’m making $52k per year and work remote out of MA.
