It’s never too early to leave audit for FDD
Go to TAS then jump back into Big 4 for FDD sounds like a reasonable path. Pretty sure it’s not uncommon either.
Don’t go to RSM
RSM is a great opportunity for the MM. It’s not worth considering if you have a B4 offer though.
Never regret leaving the lowest paying gig in public accounting. Take the title, do the year or so at RSM and jump again. Forget about audit.
You can easily jump from RSM FDD to Big 4 FDD after probably a year of experience. In fact, my firm would gladly take a person with FDD experience at RSM or any other shop than an internal audit person trying to switch over.
If you’re going from B4 to MM then you need to haggle for more money. I left B4 Audit to RSM and negotiated $10k more base. Talk about your unvested benefits & get more money!!
It’s never too early to leave audit. Honestly if you’re in the cycle for the B4 FDD offer, I’d haggle for the max offer from RSM & accept it with an extended start period while working through the B4 cycle. If you like the B4 offer renege RSM offer.
