Are there similar paying jobs as fdd that are not client facing? Feel like im worming till late every day at this point and not being able to disconnect after hours/FTO is the biggest let down of this job.

Sometimes i wanna do a govt job where no one does anything and laptop closes at 5 sharp but where are those jobs😭

your pay is generally associated with the value you produce

if you don’t want to work more, you need to be more productive

in accounting, that typically involves learning to manage larger teams.

if your question is similar pay similar hours similar skills, tbh fp&a is pretty comparable. i got a 40% boost when i jumped

AKA - leverage, scale, impact.

Technical accounting & SEC reporting at a good company (especially technical accounting) being an SME pays and while handling sec reporting does have busy months after a close (avoid closing roles if you can lol) it’s really predictable. Especially if the company is strategic and does mostly organic growth vs a bunch of transactions. Also try to avoid industries like crypto and stuff, they have higher expectations

A client developer group just told me they reached terms to “buy equity in a lease.” From what they’ve told me, if we were setting this up fresh, I’d do a new LLC and easily handle capital contributions, buy-sell, etc. in the new LLC agreement. However, here the partner had a long-term lease on the underlying RE that our group wants to develop as a concept. Lease assignment to new LLC is dicey, but I’m thinking maybe we set up a Mgmt services company to contract w/ the partner-tenant entity?

3 Things to keep in mind which changing jobs:
1. Always ask dedicated budget for the job before you tell your expectations.

2. Always have atleast 2 weeks of gap before you join any company. You might not understand significance of that but just have a gap.

3. Always talk to people of team you will be joining before you accept offer or atleast before you join company.
