Hello! I am graduating in the fall of next year with my B.S. in Accounting. I was offered a staff accountant position to start immediately at a small firm in Central Florida. The salary is $52k per year with decent additional benefits. Is this a good entry level salary?

Thanks!

So I’m excited I have three pretty solid options 1. Being a trust tax manager at a bank ( I’ve done banking/trust world before)
2. Contract to hire at a private equity firm 3. Staff accountant role at a healthcare company. Thoughts on these options?

So call me skeptical, but I don’t believe changes to corporate tax rates will have any substantial impact on tax revenue and will really only impact small businesses.

Big companies pay firms like ours big chunks of money to minimize their tax burden. The tax rate isn’t the issue, it’s the loopholes.

Recently moved over to brand side from agency. Finding that I love the work/life balance but struggling to feel like I'm doing anything meaningful. No direction, you invent the work. I feel like as crazy as agency life is, at least you felt like you were doing something and adding value/learning. Not sure if this is the right fit or if it's just an adjustment period. Anyone make this transition and realize maybe brand side just isn't for them? Or is this normal and will settle into a stride?
