I have been in client facing wealth management as an advisor for 10 years. I haven’t built a book of business because I’ve worked for mostly discount brokers (Merrill edge, TDA, Etrade).

What are typical exit opportunities from financial reporting?

I got an offer at Meta as a 3-mo contingent CSM that pays 2x what I make now.

Two pros: 1) Making the jump from a non-tech agency role to FAANG can be tough, so this is a great oppo in that aspect.
2) I'm living in SF on a non-tech salary, so the pay increase would be incredible.

It’s possible I could move into a similar role @ Meta once this expires, but to be safe, I'd need to start the job hunt again asap.

Thoughts on the pivot & how valuable a short-stint at Meta is for future job hunt?

Hello!
I’m a student majoring in Software Engineering. I’m starting my third year in a few months and have an internship where I’m learning more about working with an actual team on real-world projects.

Hey Republicans! Are you sick of this moron Donald Trump yet?

This country has not seen any progress since the New Deal and the Voting Rights Act. Now any attempt at progress in this country will be struck down by a 6-3 conservative supermajority in the Supreme Court for an entire generation

I voted for third party in presidential election. Biden and Trump have both been accused of sexual assault and inappropriate touching.

Its my birthday. And nobody knows at my work I feel a bit awkward also first birthday I have to be all alone :/ . New city any ideas to celebrate myself ?:D

Does the addition of “(level) II” make a difference to anybody? I am the only marketing communications specialist for a lead child-welfare nonprofit. We oversee four counties in two circuits. Director recently gave me add’l merit-based raise (after my annual raise, been here 14 months) & slight title change to Marketing Comm Specialist II. No plans to add a level 1 (would be lower) specialist but will add level 1 engagement specialist to team. Should I update resume/cards or is this confusing?

Has anyone had a misdemeanor charge(s) and had to report it to NASBA when applying for the CPA? If so, how did you present the explanation of the misdemeanor charge(s)?

Which offer should I accept? Currently staff 2 at big 4 in Tax with CPA license. I want to leave tax ASAP. Both are public companies +1B in revenue and same salary. Offer 1 - staff revenue accountant so reading contracts, speaking with the sales team and legal team, a lot of work at the end of the months to close books and reconcile transactions to make sure we are ASC 606 compliant. This track usually leads to director of revenue. Offer 2 - internal audit staff so SOX and compliance projects.

😳😳 I’m out on PTO next week, and it’s the first time I’m not taking my laptop home with me. It’s making me anxious but I’m taking all of your advice and leaving it here!

Compliance email might as well just say: We hope you are all in compliance with our very strict "You aren't allowed to have a good body" busy season restriction.

Up for promotion this year to manager, it seems that EY and Deloitte already announced no bonus? Guess promotion freeze will be next?

Are psychics real? Was thinking about going to one.

Has anyone done the virtual job tryout for Capital One? Basically a personality assessment. I am in the beginning stages of interview process. First step being the online assessment dubbed 'virtual job tryout'. I am anxious about answering 'correctly'. Specifically because it asks if you are competitive, willing to stop what you are doing to help others or prioritize your own work. I'm Accounting Manager at no name company, role I've applied to is Principal Accounting Associate. I have 10 YOE.

Xmas party at client site today. Sitting here waiting for everyone to leave to I can full on raid the leftover snack bar without judgement.

Is working at a local 1-2 office firm where you do tax, audit, and bookkeeping more interesting than just sticking to audit or tax?

Managed an intern this week. I knew it was gonna be challenging for me as a staff 1 and it was. Thank you to all seniors who held my hands because I did the same for an intern and it was hard

Thinking of trying to transition into audit. How is busy season? Do you get busy during quarters, or is it really just year end?

If you asked to be considered for early promotion and didn’t get it (despite being highly rated, exceeding billable goal, etc) would you look elsewhere? Is it right to be angry about it? I don’t want to spin myself up unnecessarily if it’s unjustified

I don't want to be a manager anymore.

Advice for studying for CISA? I’ve purchased the CRM, QAE, and Hemang Doshi’s book. So far I’m having trouble reading through the CRM because it’s so detailed that everything seems important and difficult to retain. I’m an incoming new hire so I think I should read the book even though I know people who have passed with only QAE (they were previous b4 interns)

I love my job, idk what you guys are complaining about...

Have you come across times where you meet the competition at the client site and just want to sneak em into the copy room, and have a good time? (Pretty sure that EY guy was thinking the same)
