What are the exit opportunities for big 4 M&A tax? Any chances to go to investment bank M&A or retiring as a big four partner is the best scenario?

I'd say IB is highly unlikely, tax is not very relevant to IB.

If you want IB, tax is not the way.

Like almost any tax role you’re looking at partner or head of tax as best case (which are good cases)

“Best” is always subjective. M&A partner live is pretty rough from my perspective, but the comp can legitimately be 7 digits so I guess I can see the attraction.

Industry exits to PE or F500 transactional tax or tax planning roles.

Hello everyone !
I just graduated and I have made it pass the third interview which was a two part working interview that I will receive compensation for. I have BS degree in healthcare professions and wanted to know if 40k is too low of salary to start off as a compliance officer for a pharmacy that provides discounted medications. My first 3 months will be training for my position but I will be paid the same. The job hasn’t offered me a dollar amount yet and I want to be best prepared.
