I did. Was new manager at midsize then moved to b4. Reality is I am kind of happy I did it because I probably would have been overwhelmed. The amount of new technology that you would need to learn without actually touching it as a manager would be too much. Now I’m just a super strong senior. I also discussed promotion to manager in a year max during discussions when interviewing and they said as long as I do good it should be fine so that’s looking good

What position are you currently?

That is the worst year

Coming from a mid-tier firm, I think I would.

Agreed w PWC

Pwc 2*

I think coming in as S3 instead of M1 is a good move. Your seniors will quite possibly despise reporting to someone who appears to know less than they do (Audit Methodology, Firm IT, etc.). As a S3 you will:

- Have a leg up on your class and more likely to be noted as a high performer
- Make relationships now as a S3 for your main clients
- Learn all the firm specific IT systems and policies
- Research audit methodology
- Quite likely (E.g., EY) you'll get a bonus next year when you promo S3 > M1

I left national as senior 1 and joined EY as staff 2

On an initial call with a company's recruiter, I was told the salary range. I said that the base pay is lower than what I make now, but with equity it's about equal, so it would be ok. If I actually receive an offer after the interview process, can I ask the company to match or at least get closer on the base pay? I'm also up for promotion this year so like to get a higher salary, but not sure if by saying "ok" to the recruiter's salary range that it'd look bad to ask for more later.c
