Here’s a number nobody shares. 300,000 accountants have left the accounting industry in recent years.

There isn’t an accounting shortage. There’s a massive problem with the accounting industry working conditions that needs to be addressed by the department of labor. They overwork us to fabricate a shortage so they can justify sending jobs overseas.

And nobody can see the chess pieces moving against them. Wake up people

What can I do with my 3 year experience at big 4, if I exit now? My aim was to always hit 6 figures after 5 years of work but I can’t stand the big 4 workload and stress levels that much longer.

Are private companies easier to work at than public companies in accounting? We have such an accelerated close deadline at the publicly traded company I’m at now, I really hate the inflexible tight deadlines and analysis seems to drag on forever after that. We also close AP/AR very early in the month yet that doesn’t stop payments/receipts from happening so we’re constantly adjusting our accruals until the end of month. Do private companies start their close after the month actually ends?

sometimes I feel like the reward of being productive is more work lol
