I’ve heard of a SM who get a 100% bump when going in directly as the CFO to one of his clients of 8 years. Probably ending in the low 300’s!! Not bad
@Deloitte 1, did you leave? Or are you still in B4? If it’s the latter, then you obviously don’t know. I left and came back and can definitively say that leaving as a newer manager is the probably the best option. If you leave once you’re too far down the public accounting wormhole, you tend to price yourself out of most jobs but don’t have experience most companies want to be a controller or CFO
Leave as a manager or senior if you want to leave. Leaving as a SM, especially an experienced one, is typically harder to do
My wife was a senior manager for 5 Years at PwC. Left for a Corporate Controller position at a 12.5Bn company and her starting salary was just slightly over double her PwC pay, plus an annual bonus of around 20% and substantial deferred comp

Disagree The longer you stay the more you will make when you exit. 30 years in B4. Don’t leave as a senior as there is too much left to learn
Knew a SM who left to become an e-commerce instruments SM at Amazon. I don’t know what that title means, but sounds great
CAE- chief audit executive at midsize bank after 14 years... pay is comparable but work-life balance + company car is unmatchable.
I’m not too qualified to answer, but I’d say director of financial reporting, controller, and maybe a vp of accounting would be most common, depending on size of company. Also, they’d probably be limited to the industries they are most experienced in. The exit ops for SM are good, but I feel like you don’t have a wide range of things to move into
A termination payment
Plenty of positions offering 75%+ pay bumps. Leaving as SM is the best career projection curve imo. If you know how to interview well and where to look, they are there.
