Hello all !!

I’m fairly new to Houston TX ( Northwest) and my last role was an AP Manager for a Real Estate Development/ New Construction/ Third party Management Company. I’m thinking about maybe going to a AP Lead or AP Specialist. I’ve been looking for a few months now and it’s very draining. If you know anyone looking for a honest hardworking AP person, please share any information.

Thank you in advance!!

People who left recently (from EY or PWC), or going to leave soon, do you have mixed feelings on the mid-year raises?

Curiosity question - I’m a naturally very chatty senior and I’ve noticed that the staff 1s who are starting remotely and living at their parents’ home (which makes a ton of sense with the remote working) that I’ve been working with seem to want to chat about both semi related work stuff and non work stuff a fair amount. If you’re a staff living at home, do you enjoy having seniors who will chat with you about random things or would you rather just get your work done and log off?

Anyone else feel anxious about being constantly green on Skype, teams Etc?

Would you stay living in a city you like but have very few friends there, or move back to your hometown where most of your friends and family are? My current city has a population of about 500k and my hometown is about 100k. My main reason to move away from my hometown was dating and jobs, but neither seem to be going any better over the past 2 years. COL is about 28% higher than my hometown and jobs don’t pay much better.
