Like most projects, it depends entirely on the client. I did 3 as a staff. 2 of them were awesome. It’s a great way to build your network early and see what it’s like outside of public accounting. Definitely jump at the opportunity!

i wish I had, it’s a good way to make connections that will benefit you as you move up in the firm.

I did one, honestly if you’re ever thinking about life after PA it’s a great opportunity to see if whatever role you get staffed in is something you could see yourself doing long term without the risk of jumping ship just yet.

I’ve been on the bench with J1 for about 3 months. I was worried that because I couldn’t find another project, I would get laid off so I found J2, which pays more, is very meeting heavy, but I really like. I’ve kept J1 because I’m still on the bench doing absolutely nothing and getting paid. Thinking about looking for a role on a project with J1 that’s not along my career path but will allow for me to do work with no calls so that I can manage both jobs. Does anyone have experience or advice?
