Would anyone else have stayed at big 4 if salaries were a bit more competitive compared to consulting? I'd have stayed for:

LCOL - MCOL - HCOL
A1: 70K - 75K - 80K
A2: 80K - 85K - 90K
S1: 95K - 100K 105K
Etc

Those are just advisory salaries

Pretty much, although I'm making more than any of those as a newly promoted S1. In DC making 110 base

Those numbers just won’t happen on audit margins.

For what it's worth, my resignation is causing management pay for flights and lodging for another employee on the firm's dime. That's pretty expensive.

Was making 103k base as S2 in audit in NYC

Those are basically tax salaries in my office. The staff ones are maybe 5k high is all

Switched from accounting to consulting for that reason. At $125k base as a senior, MCOL

I am an Associate Consultant and I work in Oracle having CTC 8,22,950 and I am switching in Data Analyst and Business Analyst profile. How much should I expect my new salary?

I've been working at my company just over a year and am still waiting on my 1 year review where a raise was to be discussed (other EA got raise at 1 year review and most raises happen at yearly reviews). However, company have just changed their policy to only review salaries in Jan (change came in after my year mark). I'm having a lot of trouble pinning my manager down for my annual review to even discuss my performance, let alone the raise. Feeling the undervalued (and now underpaid):
