Hello is anyone here familiar with advisory firms that offer similar pay and growth to big 4 audit with slightly better hours? Currently live I New Jersey and hoping to make the switch to a non internal audit advisory position (I.e valuations, litigation, technical accounting, cfo services, etc). Please feel free to mention and firms/companies offering similar pay with better hours. thank you!

Thank you for the insight, this is the first I’m hearing of the company. Currently they have two positions open near me for real estate solutions which I don’t have much experience in but will definitely keep an eye out

CFGI, Embark, Riveron, The Siegfried Group, The Alliance Group, Centri.

Thank you this is really helpful I also continue seeing nightmares about sig fried

I work at Siegfried and it’s been great. Though slightly lower raises (roughly 5%), I’m blowing through my KPMG comp through bonuses and incentives both years that I have been there. Happy to discuss more if you want to direct message

I’ll keep it in mind I only see tax positions open right now but I don’t plan to leave until September so will keep checking. Thank you

FAAS has been good to me. Work is more interesting and projects typically range from 3-6 months. There definitely have been periods of high stress but for the most part, I get to log off at 6PM.

I work at Centri if you have any questions. I know the New York office which is probably where you’d want is a pretty good group of folks.
