I guess I’ll be on the blacklist of that company forever but it is what it is 🤷‍♂️

I did this. Was an intern at a mid-tier firm who and originally accepted the full time offer, and realized I’d rather go big 4 for the brand.

I called my recruiter and just told them, and left it at that.

Make sure you call, don’t email. Might as well face it head on rather than hide behind an email.

Why are you turning it down ?

I’m thinking about it. Got an offer to go to a different big four (that I accepted) but EY is working to keep me to stay. If I decide not to join this new big4, I’ll call them and be honest with them. Definitely don’t email

I’m in a dilemma lol I don’t want to be blacklisted at either firm lolol

How much pay differential ?

Whenever I have to put slides together, I doubt myself a million times and it takes too long to make a single slide. I know I have Impostor Syndrome and depression, and the longer it takes to put a slide together, the harder it is to get it done. It’s like I have a phobia for doing the work, but it’s my job as a consultant 😔 I think I fear getting it wrong, but I’m wondering if anyone else has experienced this and how they have coped? Thanks, in advance 🙏🏻

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.

Is the CPA designation worth it? For me it would take me 1 year of PREP courses and 2 years of PEP until i can write the CFE. And I am 27 years old right now. Also wondering if it would be crazy to pursue the CPA while learning how to code to be a developer as well?
