Currently in my second year at B4 rotation program between Audit and FDD. Will be full time FDD after 3 years. I get recognized for my work in audit, but I hate audit (type of work and culture around it). Pondering between two options: (i) Convince audit partner to sign approval to start full time FDD after this busy season, or (ii) start reaching out to FDD recruiters at other B4. Thoughts?

I want to work for The Walt Disney Company corporate offices. Anywhere. I don't care where there's an office. I want to work for that company. I don't know how to drive in rain or snow, but if they have an office in places that snow, I WILL MAKE THE SACRIFICE 🤣

But I still have questions though 🤔 -

What is the culture like?
What are the work hours?
Does Disney pay for relocation for new hires like some of the FAANG companies do?
