Can someone share their work experience at other midsize firm? BDO/GT/CLA etc I am a newly promoted senior at RSM in the Southeast region and thinking of shopping around. Mainly concern with flexibility and WLB/PTO. We have a mandatory 55 hours during season and I work for a good team (feels valued within the team). I was told that I was a high performer and got the highest rating but our comp was not competitive at all, it came below both other mid firms and big 4. Do we work less than others?

It’s not great at GT. I don’t feel valued and during summer you still sometimes work 50+ hours. We’re also underpaid. Not the best time to stay at your firm but if you shop around you might get a bump because everywhere non b4 is so understaffed.

Yes for feb-apr and aug-oct depending on how 3/15 vs 4/15 heavy you are. I joined post COVID but I heard summers used to be less busy. That’s not the case anymore.

Hi I have asked to be an advisor for a startup. Its in its very early stage pre pre-seed. Its looking like weekly strategy calls and possibly some executional work as well. Like building out a sales process and/or training sales and marketing team members (this might be 1-3hr a week of work).

They are offering 1.5-3.5%. — I am wondering if that’s enough.

In addition to this the founder mentioned that he would like me to consider becoming a co-founder.
