My career advisor (partner at the firm) told me when I left as a supervisor that she just doesn’t see me passing the CPA exam since I was leaving for a different firm (I was studying at the time). Not only did I pass the exam but I made partner this year at 36. 😄

Was going between two B4 and walked out the same day I gave notice and old coworkers stopped talking to me. Funny part is I went into industry and was a client they were trying to win. I might have been the reason they didn’t win the engagement.

This is why I don’t understand why people are so petty about this stuff. They could be a client one day. Accounting tends to be a small world.

Not dramatic but when I left my old big four, the partner rolled her eyes and kind of sucked her teeth after I told her I’m leaving.

Managing partner told me I should've informed the company I was looking for a new job, I should've informed them I had an offer before accepting, and I'd never work in the city again. This was after giving a 3 week notice.

KPMG. Partners were total a-holes and ghosted me. I put in notice, wrapped up my work, thought I did everything right. They ignored my emails and didn’t even bother to respond to meeting invitations for turnover. So glad I left.

A partner told me not to take a senior manager role at another big four because he thought i wasn't ready and didn't think I knew how much more responsibility it would be. Luckily the partners at my new firm knew i was so✌️🙄

Is there any advantage to telling a company you are interested in working for in the future where you decided to accept an offer from? Or does it not matter?

Company B just sent me a request for interview and I want to keep the door open with Company B but they were just very late in extending an interview.
