Anyone have insight into the Accounting & Reporting Advisory practice at Deloitte? I’m wrapping my 2nd year as an assurance senior and am passively exploring. Was curious what type of work a senior/manager would see in A&RA (I’ve been in assurance since I graduated) Also, is there still a mandated “busy season” or is workload totally dependent on your client ledger? Are bonuses a thing? I see a lot of people mention % bonuses on here but at CR they seem to only be spot awarded or referral based.

It’s the only B4 accounting advisory function that sits under audit umbrella (other B4 accounting advisory group sits under advisory). So pay is close to audit pay. You may be pulled into audits in busy season if audit needs bodies. A lot of people split their time 50/50 between audit and ARA since it’s under the same umbrella and the audit partners also lead their own ARA projects.

Accounting advisory doesn’t have a scheduled busy season. Your schedule depends on the project (on call accounting, SOX implementation, IPO/SPAC readiness, IFRS GAAP conversion, blockchain/digital asset, ASC implementation, etc.)

Also, call it ARA. Not A&RA.

It’s a great growing practice and we moved away from the helping out audit portion of ARA as we grew.

I am in audit and would like to internally transfer, but unfortunately like most Big 4 they are not hiring at any level right now. We are overstaffed in audit even!

They don’t hire at this moment..

They may not openly advertise hiring… If you have the right skill sets/experience and can get your foot in the door to sell yourself, you can get hired.
