Hey fishes! I don’t know much about advisory but am thinking of maybe switching over from audit. I just got a message from a recruiter regarding Deloitte Advisory. The roles are location agnostic and will focus on technical accounting, reporting, IT Audit, data analytics, finance transformation, or digital transformation. Can anyone tell me more about what advisory in those areas is like? I’m not really interested in traveling and prefer to work from home. Thanks in advance.

This sounds like Deloitte controllership consulting. It’s a lot of cost cutting, optimization, and erp. Hcol analyst 1s start at 80-82k with like a 5k sign on. Personally I got an offer and just used it to get a transfer internally as it sounded pretty terrible

If you would be interested in considering a similar switch with a smaller firm with great work life balance, no travel and WFH - let me know! Recruiting only experienced professionals!

Ahhhh you are so right. I typed too fast and to your point we don’t hire only from Big4 (I edited) but only experienced professionals (not out of college)- and when we do, we pay attention to the type of people we hire because not all ex big4 professionals fit in smaller firms… :) I worked in big - medium and small firms and I found plenty of good and bad professional with questionable ethic! I’m totally with you! :)

Unpredictable in comparison to audit. It’ll vary between each project but generally data flow will dictate hours. For example, data flow slow at the start (i.e. little hours) but generally ramps up meaning a sustained period of cranking long hours and gradually reduce again towards the end of each project. Further, the client could produce data on a Friday evening which will require unforeseen weekend work.
