Do you consider Accounting to be a STEM major?

Hi Fishes,

I have a 7 year of experience in Service based IT Company. Is preparing for Maang good ? What roles and expectations should I be having?

What inspired you to start on the career you've chosen?

For anyone who cracked the leetcode questions. I’ve been going at it for months but spend hours trying to get to a solution and hours trying to understand why the “answer key” works. Can someone please share how you learned these questions? Probably going to give up and switch careers soon.

Has anyone jumped from firm directly to a business role at a company or know anyone that has? If so, how did you/they do it? Any tips or direction would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Folks, I'm currently in search of a mentor. I'm a 28y/o MSc grad and starting a Junior Funding Consultant role (writing grant applications for startups) as I'm tired of holding out for an entry level role in ESG/Sustainability - I keep getting rejections despite completing a very wide ranging internship at a renewable energy company. Last year I received an offer at Deloitte Belgium but due to Brexit & VISA delays, we couldn't continue. Now I'm unsure of my career progression & need guidance.

I’m working at an insurance defense firm, trying to target my practice to L&E. I’m overworked and underpaid, but gaining valuable experience I hope to pivot toward an eventual in-house counsel position. I recently was offered an opportunity to lateral to a national firm for a significant pay increase (150% salary increase, much better benefits, hybrid WFH options). Problem-I would be shifting gears to Toxic Tort. I’m torn between my passion and the money. I’m a second year associate. WWYD?

What would you say are the best combination of skills for software engineering now?

How to move into executive leadership? I’m a mid-40s former MBBer with, I think, an impressive and diverse resume. I think I’m suitable for an executive leadership role, but unsure about how to pursue one. Any suggestions? Career coach? Headhunters? Cold “calls”? Thanks!

Hi all,
I graduated during Covid with a double major in business administration and business management with a minor in marketing and magically ended up in sales because I needed a job. I’m about to take a data analytics course to make an attempt to break into that field. I’m currently looking for a mentor to help guide me during this time. Also, if anyone is willing to look over my resume and give me tips on how to make it more presentable for recruiters in DA that would be very helpful. Thanks

Hey everyone, I have been posting about TikTok vs Cepheid about which job offer to take and I have started my first few days at Cepheid biotech and I love it so far.

Anybody know any good directors based in Iceland? Cheaper to shoot there ?

Looking for some advice on a couple of offers I have.

The first offer is for an Account Executive position at a smaller company with a base of $50k and another $20k in OTE.

The second offer is for a BDR position at a larger and faster growing company with a base of $60k and another $20k in OTE. Also some stock options but they aren’t public yet.

I have 2 YOE as a BDR and think I could succeed in either position. Both have hybrid work set ups. Any thoughts or advice is appreciated! Thanks.

Do you consider college savings funds as part of your net worth? I can see why you would but then your net worth would decrease pretty quickly once your kid(s) go to college.

Is working a KPMG a lot of work during tax season?

Had a glowing fantastic performance review last year. This year no review, just a meeting with managing partner and HR to tell me I am fired and to leave now. No bad performance. Is it just the money?

I have recently considered going back for my doctorate. How should I inform my RL that has had my back my entire career that the big4 may no longer be my endgame? Especially since I need to disclose their name on applications and don’t want them to be blindsided if someone from admissions reaches out…

As an A3, I finally understand why people work so late in busy season. It’s because you don’t get any work done until 6 pm, when the pings and meeting finally slow down. I can’t work on something for more than 10 minutes without something else popping up.

If I'm forced to use my vacation, floater, etc. towards my study leave for CFE but I have vacation booked for right after CFE, will PwC still let me take that vacation as a "leave of absence"?

I'm honestly impressed how many hours I've worked in October without the assistance of any performance-enhancing drugs. 🤣 #busyseasonsilverlivings

Did EY get rid of bravo awards?

We stay until 8 or 9 everyday and then at the end of every week my manager tells me to book only 40 hours. It sucks ass and now I have to explain to my counselor why my utilization is so pedestrian...

Has anyone had an interview go well, people tell you their excited to move forward with you. Then follow up and get ghosted for weeks?

Is there guidance/codification for departures from GAAP? Drafting a memo on some departures from GAAP (deminimus AP accruals, depreciation, etc.). I wanted some sort of authoritative literature to ref. Are noting the departed standards enough?

Anyone have any user friendly tools or services for viewing the authoritative lit? Spending a lot of time navigating w/o any license

How many of you max out all tax-advantaged space, i.e. 401K, Roth, and HSA, and is it doable to live on what's left?

Been reading a lot about how fbook manipulates timelines. Started an experiment where I'm liking post I wouldn't normally like. Kinda excited to see how it turns out 🤓. Has anyone done this before?
