What is the salary of a typical Engagement Manager / Manager / Project Leader at your firms? I am at a big 4 firm and we are at $158k for new managers which feels on the lower end but curious to benchmark

Tax senior with CPA at small firm. Best way to get to Big 4 audit? (LA or OC) Went to non-target so little to no alumni at B4. I don’t mind the switch to a lower title since audit was always my preference and was never a fan of tax (stayed local for family).

My joining date is NoV 21st, can any one provide me some details.. Cab facility..? Allowances any .? Reallocation allowance..? Shift allowance..? Joining bonus..? I have one more offer from other company, let me know which company is best to join regarding the career growth.!
