Even as a consultant if you source work to your SM/AD you should get more than kudos correct? I'm talking some sales credit. Is this not possible at the C/SC level?

I'm kind of disappointed in that message. I'd think somebody that works at my company would have a similar entrepreneurial spirit. Maybe that's what separates you and me P1

Bless your heart. What are you going to do with sales credit? It should be in your feedback, after that, what did you want? A cookie? Are you paid on commission?

Some nice performance feedback would be appreciated. But consultants don’t have sales targets for a reason.

P1 again you completely missed the entire premise of this thread. Since business development is preached upon I want to know what is in it for me? That is having an entrepreneurial spirit. You can have your head in the sand, but as you can see 5 other 🎏 disagree with you.

For those using voyager, does it take a really long time for deposits to settle? It's been like 1.5 weeks, my cash has been taken out of my bank account a while ago, but voyager still has all my deposits as pending.

I can still trade with the pending deposit, but I'm just wondering since I'll eventually withdraw some.

Just found out that my favorite aunt, who claimed I was her “favorite” niece, chose to leave all her valuables to her other two nieces who never visited or called her once in the last ten years. My aunt passed away suffering from cancer last year and didn’t have her own kids. I was there by her side throughout her battle. I still wish I had done more, made her life easier. I probably sound petty, but a part of me is forcing me to re-evaluate every interaction I ever had with her.

Anyone have situational depression? Can’t stop beating myself up over a decision a year ago. Basically missed out on a massive amount of money. I know this seems trite and i never even cared thatt much about money before this year.

So many other good things happened to me this year - got married, got a puppy, moved etc, and yet the one thing i keep returning to is this decision as though i ruined my life. Ironically the only thing ruining my life is my outlook and yet i just can’t stop.

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).

Just a reminder that outside our bubble no-one really cares about firm prestige etc.
