My guess is big4 audit partner. Really just a guess though, curious if anyone will comment who actually knows.

Again, really just a guess, but I’m not sure if there is a crazy disparity between audit partners and FDD partners generally, and I assume that big4 partners are making a decent amount more than MM partners, especially over the long term.

It’s not a matter of “more” or “less”, the pay is just…. different. Hope that’s helpful.

At deloitte, average audit partners were making well north of 500k a few years ago. Probably more now. Also, the big 4 pension will lead to much higher lifetime incomeI would think

Associate Director 1 - materially over $500k year 3

Currently a staff in audit - 6 months in. Glad to be learning a lot, and have had a generally positive experience at the firm other than a few interactions, some tough busy season nights. Really been intrigued by TAS/M&A, however, and had a few convos with a senior in TAS i know at the firm. It’s closer to what I studied, but don’t know how to make the jump as it seems an internal transfer could take 6+months/senior rank and a lot of convincing. Is it better to jump firms/has anyone done this?

From Big4 Transparency: S1/MCOL/2YOE/FDD making $97k. Managers MCOL close to $150k.

very Selective jobs( MF PE and BB IBs) kinda blow these numbers out of the water... but for the more attainable exits like MM IB and and corporate development... considering wlb and pay, is the grass much greener?

Thoughts?
