What's the salary increase (if any, I hope) expectation for a lateral move to industry (A3 to staff accountant) I don't have CPA completed yet. I cannot stay to senior.

Put down in your resume you are taking sections of the cpa or working towards it. having the cpa is not a dealbreaker tbh. I have 2 solid years and going for senior positions in industry....no offers yet.....but worth a try

Same boat! Third year, I guess technically 4th year as of June here. I didn't have my CPA done and therefore couldn't make senior at PwC . I just accepted an offer in private for a senior accountant position hat actually pays $10k more than a 1st year senior salary at PwC. Turned in my notice this past Monday. Don't settle for less, OP!

Also I found that it is true what they say about public accounting experience counting for more than private. The job posting for my new position listed a required minimum of 5 years experience, but the interviewers said they counted my 3 years in public as 5 years, since hours wise I probably worked the equivalent of 5.
