Got two audits out before the holiday break and I feel so free!

If you do billable work on a given PTO/vacation day, do you still count that day as vacation? Or do you get that vacation day "back"? Or do you only get the part that you billed "back"? (Or some other option.)

Book recommendations for a vacation?

McK AMA. On PTO this week and next. What do you want to know?

At a tech company with less than 50 people and $6 M Revenue. Our current maternity and paternity leave policy is not good for attracting talent. 12 weeks for mom only 4 weeks paid and no time off for dads. Curious to know what policy other companies have, and can you let me know size and approx rev of company?

How is Forvis? I am thinking about applying for an entry level audit associate position. Is it nice working for them? Do you get to travel on audits? Also, is the unlimited pto truly unlimited?

Hey friends! I hope everybody has had a productive week and had an awesome weekend for those who enjoyed their holiday! This question is specifically for Amazon Web Services in sales.

So I am currently a potential candidate as an AAE. I was told that I would in the future have to prepare a mock deck and deal with objections.

Has anybody had to prepare them and what was the scenario?

Thanks everyone!

I need help. I'm dealing with multiple losses in the same week and having a hard time... I took some time off from work but I have no motivation to do anything. I don't want to go back to work and don't care about my work right now. I want to quit but I don't want to make a rash decision but need a long break. It's also not fair to my team that I can't give it my 100%. What can I do?

How supportive are your companies when it comes to taking PTO for mental health days?

Hello, I have accepted an offer at a competitor company and sent in my resignation letter. My start date is 5 weeks from now so I put in my end date 4 weeks from date letter was signed. The manager said I had to leave the job in 2 days and the company can only play 2 weeks of work. Is it normal how they do that?

Does anyone work for Children’s medical center of Dallas on this form ? I know we recently had a “employee appreciation” bonus last month before Thanksgiving but not sure if that counts as one whole holiday bonus including Christmas , or it it’s safe to expect another in mid December ? What seems to be the latter in the past ? Any thoughts are appreciated !

Hello! I’m based in NYC and looking for my next role. I work in the digital strategy/brand strategy space. I have experience across multiple industries (tech/telecom/Pharma (dermatology)/beauty and skin care and I am looking for a Director or VP role (my last job was a VP). I would like to keep my base of at least $180k (is this reasonable if I look for Director positions too?) Would love to land something soon before we hit the holiday season. Do you think what I am looking for is reasonable?

One of my coworkers thinks she deserves more PTO than it is allowed in our agency because she's "struggling". We all struggle with our own battles but she's being very rude about it. How can we handle this?

startup Gig Alert: I am looking for a brand designer to join our startup team at Lifelines (truly a startup and we’re not in stores yet). We’re a product company set for revolutionizing how people approach sensorial wellness and I’m looking for someone with holistic experience in branding / art direction with a clear, bold visual style. Around 5 years of experience preferred. But work and personality trump years in experience. Always remote+unlimited PTO. Send me books / portfolios.

Any ideas on how to negotiate a delayed start date? I really want it to be Jan. My mental health needs some time off and this company breezed through interviews to offer in 1 week when I was expecting it to take at least a month. I really need some time to recover from burnout.

I’m on the GPS PDM town hall and they seem to be ignoring the fact that the PTO impacts the PDM track whereas other tracks do not…. Unless they answered and I missed it

How much PTO does everyone get? Please include yoe for context

Do you fly out to family for the holidays or do they come to you? We're hosting Christmas for the first time and having the entire family come to town for it. What are some can't miss holiday events in the city? Ideally accessible because my father is in a wheelchair.

Getting paid $52/hour as a part-time employee. My supervisor wants to convert me into a contractor. What should my hourly rate be now? No benefits or PTO.

I’m in a little of a pickle but a good one. Offer A. Established “start up” doing well financially and projected to hit profitability. 130k base. Stocks offered, unlimited PTO, and 70% Medical covered. Offer B. Is at a business much larger…90k salary with 10% bonus and generous stock offering. Titles are different which is why the pay is much different. I know some may think it is a no brainer but offer A allows me to grow the department ground up whereas offer B id be apart of to just different

FYI Today and tomorrow you can view Perseid Meteor Shower. Those in Philly or NY should go to Cherry Springs State park to view spectacular night skies and thank me later.

Does anybody have good electric standing desk recommendations? Ideally in the $200-300 range.

Hello! Anyone work at GE Healthcare?

SPHR exam- has anyone ever been “randomly selected” for an application audit? This just happened to me and the sheer amount of effort that is going to go into collecting all the documents almost makes me not want to follow through. Since I didn’t finish undergrad, they’re asking for a copy of my high school diploma or transcript and that itself is going to be an absolute nightmare to get hold of. Guess I’m not really looking for a solution here, just venting.

I applied to MBB in December while working at a boutique but did not get an offer. I lateraled to Tier 2 firm, but looking to interview again. How long should I wait until applying again? Is there a freeze time?

Hi Fishes,

Does anyone know about TCS Digitate? Can you share some reviews about it?

Thanks!

Recruiters, is it frowned upon for candidates to reach out to you on DM on Linkedin? Or does it show that they’re more interested than just submitting an application?

Hey everyone. I am thinking about leaving PwC for a role at small company with about 40 employees where I'll be working directly for the VP of finance. I'll be implementing netsuite, accounting and

So my VP at my previous company felt bad and refused to speak to me or attend my farewell after my resignation. His reason was that I somehow betrayed his trust as he had promoted me just last year (after keeping the position open for 4 months and letting me take additional work load after the previous SM left!). Does this make any sense? I mean where does this sense of entitlement or ownership over the employees come from? No wonder the company in question is kind of facing a literal exodus!

I’m going through the interview process with B4 for senior audit position. My salary expecting are around 85k but EY and Deloitte recruiters told me that it was pretty high. Is that true? (Miami location)

New to this. Is it typical for a firm to ask a staff to do the work of a senior for a year to show that they are ready for a promotion?

my stress level peaks when there is so much work to do and the filing day is only 2 weeks away 🙃

Any audit folks at midsize and up firms (experienced senior and above only) looking for a role in accounting advisory/consulting at a small firm <100 people (completely remote), reach out to me. Busy season hours are approx 45/week. Comp starts around $105k

Just on boarding, who will evaluate your performance and how do they know how you performed if you are not working directly with them？ I assume we will work on different clients throughout the year instead of a fixed team？

Since starting in January I have:

Spilled water on my laptop and backed into a parked car less than an hour apart.

Got a ticket for a rolling stop vs. full stop.

Can I start January over?

Unfortunately was dragged into an audit despite the fact I don’t work in audit. Why does audit RM say yeah your hours will be 50 hours/week when you’ll have to work way more to do the audit. Seems very dumb - if you have work do it, if not don’t work…

In audit, what is the difference between what work a senior manager does versus a manager and what are the expectations between these levels.

Any websites offering free CPE credit courses?

How is Forvis? I am thinking about applying for an entry level audit associate position. Is it nice working for them? Do you get to travel on audits? Also, is the unlimited pto truly unlimited?

Planning on leaving after this busy season. Finding it hard to have motivation, while also having to work more hours than ever before. Advice?

I think the Matrix is broken, I just had a déjà vu.

Typical % salary increase for promotion to senior?

Is $84K base for audit senior 1 in Seattle considered okay?

Does FSO (Financial Services Office) have the same busy season as every other industry? Is it easier or harder?

What is a good credit card to get for travel?

Starting to see a lot of compensation threads and even within the same city, the variance of salary is really noticeable. I didn’t expect the spread to be this high, especially in high COL areas.
