Heads up, sounds like Big4 wants to phase out junior roles with AI in the coming years👀

I just want to be like the woman on House Hunters who is a professional balloon designer and has a $1.3M budget

We have a very broken product process. Our commercial team creates the “strategy” and prioritizes customer problems. But they always want to define the how, when, and product is the executor. What is your current process of commercial providing a customer problem and what are the steps to turn it into a feature?

Sibling is 52 days sober from heroin/cocaine, but I just found a syringe and alcohol wipes under their pillow.

They have been passing observed urine tests, how is it possible that they’re using? Any ideas?

“Those glasses don’t make you look younger, they make you look older—but slightly more cool.”

Can you use excel during the interviews to do calculations? Figured if it would be virtual it would be easier to do so.

I survived the cull and consider myself lucky for that.

Anyone who hasn't, please post here with your background and industry alignment.

I'm sure many others on here would be willing to put you in touch with personal contacts to help you get back in employment.

Now more than ever, remember that this too shall pass.

Please can anyone help me in completing independence policy exam

Hi Fishers

Anyone wants a referral at ZS then DM me.

We had evaluations and normally we have annual raises. I think my salary is under market value at $68k (plus OT) in Los Angeles (5 years of experience). I was told I am one of the top employees in the firm. When I asked about a raise, I was told “when you think about it at your level 5k to 10k doesn’t really matter it’s the long term goal that matters”. What would be your response to that, to a partner who is making 500-600k a year?

I keep seeing people say this is the new normal. But it really isn't, this is a temporary normal.

Y'all leaving upper deckers in the toilet stalls need re-examine your life. How can it be so tricky to hit a12inch hole while sitting down? Bathroom is out of commission thanks to a serial squatter.

Is voluntary vision insurance is eyemed?

What’s the best answer/action when a partner asks you for a deliverable but it’s been sitting for manager review for a couple days?

Is there something against doing back to back offers at PwC or any of the other big four? I have two accepted offers with PwC next summer and would love to do both if the dates don't overlap (internship and a Masters fellowship). I was told that even if the dates don't overlap when they are announced sometime next year, I may still not be able to do both because of reasons related to the firm?
If this is the case then I may have look for another internship that I can do before the fellowship.

So FTX, a multi-billion dollar business, was running on quickbooks per the Financial Services Committee meeting going on right now 😂 Man their auditors gotta be sweating

Anyone ever boomeranged from one Big 4 to another and then came back to the initial Big 4? If so what was the reason?

Currently in IT audit, want to get into consulting. Worth it to wait until senior? Biased since I want to get out, but I feel the skills aren’t transferable and don’t want to be pigeonholed into risk

Think I forgot to test an automated control...how screwed am I ?

To those in leadership, no PBB is what it is, but to blame it on COVID-19 is just a slap in the face...2-3 weeks of working from home doesn’t kill the fiscal year when we’re 9 months in....

Did someone get fired in the new manager training in Orlando after getting drunk?

When you're pretty sure it would be easier to survive Game of Thrones as a main character for 6 seasons than to rewrite the 40 page walkthrough correctly. 🙄🙄💀💀

Anyone negotiate severance?

Who is going to Discover in December?

One of my senior managers is a boomerang and told me she was laid off when she was 7 months pregnant about 10 years ago. I think she was a senior or manager. She was in a specific group and everybody was laid off. It wasn’t performance based.

Would you work at your company again if you were laid off?

How about the accountant who was the emergency goalie last night for the Blackhawks. Wonder if he is on here 😂

How many of you are receiving requests for feedback from people you hardly worked with this cycle?

Tax senior with CPA at small firm. Best way to get to Big 4 audit? (LA or OC) Went to non-target so little to no alumni at B4. I don’t mind the switch to a lower title since audit was always my preference and was never a fan of tax (stayed local for family).

Anyone want to sell me their CFE books ?
