Do you like your boss? Every job that I've worked has had a good job, but I always hear stories of bad bosses. Is it really that common?

I’ve had some bosses where I needed to be more hands on but overall I have always liked my bosses.

I guess I've been pretty lucky, my bosses have generally been pretty good. They've been competent and easy to get along with. I've liked some better than others, but I never really had a truly bad boss.

I've generally liked my bosses

I had a total of seven bosses from a 14-year career span and two were good, one was excellent, and the rest are "bad" bosses.

Is it more worth it to go into FDD at a regional firm now, or hope that my current big 4 will transfer me come spring 2021?

I'm kind of in the mindset of only doing FDD at big 4, otherwise I'll go straight to industry. Am I being too down on mid-market FDD experience and the related exit ops?

Also, I can't go the route of doing FDD at a different big 4. Already got rejected by all of them cause I'm not in audit (but have CPA).
