Curious what other B4 are at for offshore hours percentages - our leaders are saying competitors are pushing 60-70% of engagement hours done by remote staff? My engagements are closer to 30%.

Does offshore defend pcaob inspections as well then ….

Like 15..

Does this means less work and more supervision/project management if most of the work is done by offshore staff?

We need a bit more information. Is this for Assurance work? Internal Audit? Security work? Each one would have different percentages on or offshore.

For SEC public company audits, you may be able to get to 35% but I don't see how you can do more

I have a small PCAOB engagement that is 70% India hours aka end to end GDS engagement. The leverage model works for small, routine IT audits that have little to no changes year over year. IT Budget is around 700 hours total

All other engagement are between 15-30% GDS (India) hours

Decided that I’m leaving audit today. Trying to understand the full range of opportunities in forensics. Will have my CPA and CFE. So far, I understand that there are client-serving firms like FTI and then the B4 will have forensics arms as well. What are some other forensic accounting roles? Pros and cons? Better than audit? Honestly just looking to learn anything.

How are 1st year litigation associates dealing with WFH? I’ve been having terrible anxiety/panic attacks, and pretty sure my billables wont exceed 110 for April.
