Exit ops for an assurance senior manager? Is a controller possible? Or would they prefer industry experience + public?

Controller is 100% doable. I know several people who have left public and gone straight into controllerships. Position ranged from senior to senior mgrs.

OP - are you looking only at industry? Or is consulting still on the table? Stout, Embark, MorganFranklin, Effectus, etc. are all smaller consulting firms that are growing without the PA bs.

I'm at Effectus, highly recommend - none of the B4 bs, less overhead costs so higher compensation, good experience all around personally. We're hiring across the board rn and I'm happy to refer, DM me with any questions!

DD has great people and WLB, but pay is low and you’re not given the tools and resources to succeed + truly make an impact. Google and Apple are ideal but need backups. Like is Salesforce still good?
