2nd year manager here currently on a project (approx 50% of my time) with L&D and I'm really enjoying it - any thoughts/perspectives on moving from audit to L&D?

Think long term. L&D is great but there will likely be a salary cap and learning potential nothing like in audit. Also skills aren’t as transferable if you decide to leave pwc. As an audit professional you have many more opportunities as you progress and are a revenue driver whereas in L&D you are not. Only do it if you truly feel this is your calling and you will be the best at it and move up the ranks.

What is L&D?

Learning and Development

Since I can only work remotely for my company due to location, is it best to resign or to hold out in hopes for a transition to another department?

What do you do with a Staff with ~1 year exp that legit won’t work.

Morning comes and they still didn’t do it. When they finally do it, it is riddled with errors and clearly shows they didn’t try.
