Hate that the firm doesn't let you work your 2 weeks notice if going to a competitor. I have to choose between leaving my team with no time to hand things off, or I work extra to document everything.

You also don’t have to say you’re going to a competitor, that’s completely voluntary information. You can put your notice in and saying your deciding between multiple offers or simply say you’d prefer not to say……

Did they let you go in the spot and will they pay you for those weeks ?

In that case all is well but I've heard that they don't make any exceptions. May just be my office

So let’s say you put in your 2 weeks today 9/10/21 14 days would be 9/24/21. If you did that you would have to stop working because your going to competitor. If you need to finish something why can’t you just put your notice 9/23/21 and then put in your notice. And ur done 9/24/21. Since they won’t let you work after. What’s the difference. Unless I’m missing something. Using hypothetical dates btw.

Damn sorry you are in a tough spot. That’s wild. I think your best bet is just work extra. You want to leave on good terms with your team. Never want to burn any bridges or leave a bad taste in there mouth. Then when you put your notice in you can chill and relax since u can’t work on client

Also which competitor you plan on joining and what role? Just curious =). Same role as pwc? Always curious what ppl transition too

I’m currently applying, looking to do something similar. Do you mind sharing what level Senior you are, how much the M&A comp is, and the COL? Any signing bonus? This will help me set expectations. Thank you!

I’m going crazy in Audit, I’m an A2. I think I’m going to try and transition to consulting. Would it be smarter to stay within the firm or go to a new one, and is there a half-step I should take (such as going to TAS for a year or so) before going into consulting? I just want more exposure to companies I work on than just the audit, it doesn’t feel like stuff I’ll be using in 5 years (but I’d be happy to be proven wrong on that). Business strategy/biz dev is catching my interest recently.
