Thats surprising. What don’t you like about cmaas? I don’t think I have ever heard someone switching that way. FDD and Val yes

like

Yes! I will definitely look into it again!

No. I meant people from CMAAS have switched to valuation, FDD and deals strategy but only one person I know has switched back to audit and she made partner in audit. Most people who switch to Val then try to go to investment banking. I am in CMAAS

Is CMAAS that bad??

Not bad at all! People love it, it’s basically nerdy accounting super technical and am just not really into as much. Looking to try something different
