Was offered a senior accounting position in NYC for 100k and a 20% discretionary bonus. My EY raise in October will put me at 91k. I feel like 100k base is low given all the benefits at EY (ex: phone bill, internet bill, fitness fund) but the recruiters are saying 100k for someone with 3 years experience is unheard of. Any thoughts?

All the benefits you just named comes out to like $1500 after tax. Not very important in the grand scheme of things. Need to know more about the position but 100K in NYC for 3 years of experience is definitely not “unheard of”

Just left public in NYC after 2 years right before senior promotion for a role in private paying about $100k total comp and much better benefits, feel like your offer is reasonable, I’d gather more information on the benefits at your new job and compare them to EY’s

I’ve heard that seniors leaving big 4 should get AT LEAST 100K - and this in the Midwest not NYC - so they’re trying to make it sound like a better deal than it actually is. You also have to consider the growth factor. Are you ok leaving for slightly higher pay and then not having steady promotions? Or do you want to stay and get guaranteed promotions and raises every year?

You could switch to FDD in NYC right now with your experience and get 110, so if nothing else it’s worth trying to counter if you’re really interested in the position

91k as senior 1 at EY? Are you FDD?

I was 90k as S1 in GCR tax NYC

All in experience is 2 years ? I think $100k for that sounds like a reasonable offer. But seems like you’ll make that at EY next year anyways. So depends if you want out at EY or will tough it out a year.

Not sure why TCS even conducts multiple technical rounds and rejecting candidates after submitting all the required documents saying your salary expectations are too high for our pay grades. Rather than why cannot they specify the salary bracket that they have been looking for clearly even before HR schedules the interview. Atleast candidates can decide if they want to go through all this process and ending up with no offer which will have an impact on morale.
