How much big4s are paying to audit manager and experienced manager in Bay Area (San Francisco - HCOL) ?

Auditors, what are things that non-auditor higher level industry accountants (this can be controllers/CFO's etc.) need to know and do but don't?

Anyone in my network interested in working for a firm solely focused on benefit plan audits? Great work life balance and benefits. We are urgently looking to hire for a manager level position. Feel free to reach out if interested!

what’s with managers reviewing work papers 2 months after they’re done and then writing review comments? makes me not want to cooperate with them

How to succeed in public accounting these days if not an uptight Type A workaholic? Especially at manager or above. I have a real life and interests/identity outside of my job and I don't freak out over the slightest mistakes in workpapers but those seem to be who public accounting is for - especially these days. How do I succeed without letting the job take over my life or change who I am as a person?
