I’d probably take the deals job and then try and get into B4 after getting some good experience. Or trying B4 for deals now. Would pass on risk if it was me.

Gotcha thank you

Transactions no question

Thank you all for the great advice I will definitely be going down the tas offer over the risk offer

With all things being equal, your exit ops from big 4 will likely be better

Oh take the GT offer and jump to big 4 when you feel the need. I’m in tax and even I know risk is not the move

I’ve been at a job for a few months and hate it - partners set unrealistic deadlines, micromanage, and create work that truly is not necessary/push urgency when there is no real urgency. I had other offers prior to accepting this job that may still be options, and going back to my old job (for a pay cut) might also be an option. I can’t tell if this is just burnout, growing pains, or just an untenable work environment. Would you ride it out for a year at new job or pursue other options? HELP!
