Hello,

I am based in Vancouver and have about 2 years of experience working in a small public accounting firm. I am currently exploring job opportunities and am particularly interested in technology risk (also known as IT audit). I would love to learn more about technology risk assurance. If anyone in this field would be open to a coffee chat, I would greatly appreciate the opportunity. Additionally, I would be grateful for any advice on key skills or qualifications I should focus on.

I’m getting put up for manager a year early. I have PPMD ,SM, and M support. Pretty much support from all the key individuals on my team and in my service line. Since it is a year early if i don’t get promoted this round I know it’ll come mid year but I do expect a good salary increase still without the promo. If I don’t get the promo nor a salary increase that I’m okay with, how do I let my partner know that I will begin to entertain outside offers? some of which have offered the manager role.

I am A2 in PwC AC Bangalore in Management consulting - I want to shift to US office due to some reasons. Can anyone please elaborate the intercompany transfer / internal rotation process? Like where to apply? what are the requirements?

A colleague told me today that Google separates Product Manager and Product Owner as two separate roles. I believe that one PM role is preferred in the industry and most modern software companies, especially FAANG companies, only have PMs. Just curious what others have experienced and if I'm correct in my assumption.

Any product managers who wouldn’t mind me DM’ing to ask a few questions? Currently a tech consultant looking to leave consulting and considering PM

2) go do consulting for a few years
3) any other recommendations?

Thanks!

My company is giving me a reimbursement while I go to school. It’s capped to induce me to study part time. I decided to go full time. Pay the difference out of pocket so I can graduate quicker.

What should I ask for when I graduate? Living in Southern Pennsylvania.

Has anyone quit their job because of a relationship? I started my job 3 months ago and now my employer wants me to move to NY. The thing is, I fell in love during the pandemic with a friend that I have known for 3 years. It's frustrating since I know I could continue my job from home.

Crowe is hiring for quite a few positions across the US (Internal Audit, IT controls and cyber/digital security, Compliance,etc)… I’m a manager and would think some of these niche areas have great opportunity for new folks to excel rather quickly. Great flexibility and mobility policies. I’d be happy to chat if interested and get you directly in touch with the right people internally.
