Senior Tax Manager

I hate my current project... It's turned into a dead end role months from completion. My RP is good friends with the Director, and my group is relatively small. I feel pretty trapped 😔

At Deloitte now. laid off last year while on medical leave. Landed a new job with the help of a senior mentor and vouched for me not knowing my medical limitations. I just had to take sick leave again on the first project out of the gate. Dr is recommending 40 hours a week which will not fit the requirements of my director role. I feel like I need to switch roles to a non client facing role to be realistic in my health limitations. How do I make the switch and have the convo with w my mentor?

What do exit opportunities typically look like for a Big 4 consulting Director (recently made the grade)? Is going into industry the main play? Start-ups? MBB? Can one segway, say, into PE as an SME?

Given the below options for a SC role. -Dell Latitude 14" -Dell Precision 15.6" -Mac Air 13" -MacPro 16" I have a personal MacPro 13" (hardly use it but love it).

Question for consulting folks- how do you stay motivated after you got into your role for 2plus years? I can’t tell if I’m just getting lazier month by month or I’m just finding work less important. I am hopping this is a bump and I get over it shortly. Anyone else feel This now or at some point in their career?

Hi all! For an experienced hire as a Human Capital Consultant at Deloitte, what should I expect the salary/sign-on bonus to be at a MCOL city? I have approx. 3.5 YOE (non-consulting), MBA and MS degree (non target school) and also SHRM certified (which is probably irrelevant for the role but thought I’d share anyways). Already did my research but the range is kind of all over the place for experienced hires so just want to have a ballpark. Thanks!

Anyone has CashApp referral code they want to share?? Win win situation.

Received an offer as a senior fund accountant, but I’m not 100% sure fund accounting would be for me. I feel like it may limit exposure and potential future opportunities compared to a typical senior accounting role. It’s a great company so I’m having trouble making a decision.

Associate at laid back small firm (15 attys) with 5 yrs exp weighing lateral to AmLaw200 for corporate/M&A. Current firm has no billable req (avg. about 1600 a year) while new firm has 2000 hour req. I’d make at around 50k more per year by lateraling, but concerned with the work life balance and exit opps from biglaw in a few years (envisioning 2-3 years once I have paid off debt). I’d also make partner at current firm in about 2 yrs FWIW. Thoughts from those who have made a similar jump?

I get so sick of working with men who don't do their jobs, try to make you deal with issues they own. Ugh! I finally set boundaries with a coworker and was met with an interesting combination of condescension and cluelessness. "Feel free to check out after you report the issue"....Um, I'd love to, but you're refusing to call them and they keep blowing up my phone.

Currently at B4 and most of my work has been on the international side. Doing a masters of tax law (LLM opened up to non-JD candidates) and find that I’m really interested in what transaction tax / National folks do with memo writing & legal analysis/planning.

Need resume help — in college, it was pretty standard to have a consistent amount of bullets (no more than 3-4) for each position. I’d imagine that experienced hires would have probably more for their primary job and only a couple of lines for volunteering or other extracurriculars. Thoughts?
