Are audits of Government Contractors fun? Anything you have learned that could be transferable to a corporate type finance job? I’m afraid I’m setting myself up for failure as I just started working for a firm in the GovCon sector. But if I want to be a CFO or Controller. This will not help?

I work for a public accounting firm where gov con is one of the largest industries we have. I'm on the assurance side in that group. There are tons of exit opportunities. A former partner is the COO of a large private government contractor (she used to be the CFO). Their current CFO and their accounting manager are both former public accounting employees. If you have more questions, etc. you're welcome to DM me.
