Well high performer, I think you answered your own question.

Sorry, I couldn’t resist and totally get what you mean.
It’s a high value skill and the 3 firms I’ve been at all seem to be very busy in that space year round
Honestly I don’t think there are due to the nature of the work. Most clients are 12/31 YE so most work hits in January and February, and tight turnaround. Some companies are starting to do 10+2 or 11+1 to help shift some work from those heavy months
I came from compliance as well and it was nice at first. Forgot to mention I also did carve out projects, while hour-wise they were better, more consistent for the most part but pre-Covid we had to be on site every week and travel time wasn’t billable.
It’s also worth mentioning that provision work is more high stress than compliance especially as you rise up in ranks. Companies would rather file amended returns than restate financial statementa
