Depends what industry. Seems like tech pays the highest. Also, do you have your CPA? I wouldn't interview for less than $70-80K.

They offered 80 which I think is low

How many years of experience do you have? If you have 2 years at EY, it's a damn good offer... bc that's what I was offered w/ 3 years previous industry exp and 1.5 years in public for midsize firm. So 80K seems average for 3-4 years experience. If you want to make more money, move to Dallas. Lol.

I've got 4 years experience. It's hard knowing that for a larger city somewhere else like Chicago I could get 100 no question

Yeah, unfortunately Austin doesn't pay as well as larger cities. But everyone wants to live here, so that's the trade off.

Question re: salary. I’m thinking about accepting an offer at a small (4-6 attorneys) transactional firm. I would primarily be working on NDAs for clients. The role sounds great (no billable hours, fully remote, flexible hours/ can work from anywhere); however, the salary is $70K. I’m a new attorney, with only one year of experience. Does this salary seem low? If so, any advice on what someone in my position should ask for?

Is it business as usual or you’d feel hurt. I go hard for my loved ones but when it comes to me it’s… meh you’re on your own and good luck!

This firm is mid sized and more focused on WLB. My question is how bad do you think this will affect my comp??
