🤗Another reminder that it pays to be an accountant. #ICYMI 📰EY announced that it will reset base salaries for its accounting recruits. 📈Starting this fall, new recruits will see pay raises of more than 10%. EY also plans to continue increasing salaries for other early-career accountants. From Bloomberg Tax: “Bigger paychecks from firms like EY that dominate the market will set the pace for higher wages across the industry, pressuring mid-tier and even smaller regional firms to step up and boost their entry-level pay. EY wants to woo top students from US business schools to supply skilled staff needed to shoulder an increasingly complex workload, while also combating a shrinking pool of accounting graduates, said Dante D’Egidio, vice chair of assurance for EY Americas, in an interview Friday with Bloomberg Tax.” Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/grxvbuKZ #CPA #Accountant #TaxPros #Tax #Taxes #Accounting #Accountancy #Bookkeeping #Finance #Advisory #Staffing #Recruiting #Hiring #Career #Careers #CareerDevelopment #Team #Teamwork #TeamDevelopment #Compensation #Salary #EY #BigFour #Big4
