How do you feel about you being qualified for a managerial position but they want to hire outside the company so u now have to train your mngr & is taking over 5 months on getting the hang of things? Mind u, u had a mngr before & she was let go so u where the only one handling the department & kept it maintained. You trained a temp to do ur job & u still had it maintained. Once the new manager came, now u are falling behind on work because u constantly have to help ur new manager w/ her work.

You need to quit. No way I’m training someone from outside the company to do a job I should be doing and getting compensated for it.

I feel like it's time to find a new job. If a department can function for 5 months while they look for a manager they shouldn't be hiring. They should be promoting! If they don't see your worth after that then they never will.

Taking in consideration only what you wrote here, agree, you need to change the employer. your employer does not see you as a manager, you are wasting time. Try to get a proper review to understand what you are missing in their view and work on areas of improvement while searching.

Agreed with Accounting Finance Manager 1 above. Get with your manager and see what you are missing and how to bridge that gap.

Went through a very similar situation a few years back. They created an AR supervisor position for a person from the company we merged with just to have somewhere to stick them and not lay them off. To top it off, the person had no accounting education or background. Watching them attempt to use excel, or any computer program for that matter, was physically painful for me. Few months into that arrangement and they attempted to place me on a PIP because of work being behind. I found something new and left as soon as possible.

I'm currently living this. CFO retired in March. I've been doing that job plus mine. No extra pay, no bonus, nothing... just 5 months of 60+ hour weeks, trying to get the books closed, cleaned up, and through audit.

New CFO started 3 weeks ago and he has no clue or interest in how things are done. He keeps trying to change his things are done without understanding why they're done the way they've been done.

I've updated my resume and am actively looking to get out. It hurts, though, realizing the total lack of appreciation.

I suggest you start looking, too. People suck.

You should have been promoted to manager. You need to leave this company as soon as possible. They don't value your contributions and expertise.

I faked my resume I mean my contracting firm did and I didn’t have choice and I got the job. Now my client wants to offer me a full time position. I kind of feel like they trust me with the work I’m doing and also considering my past experiences to offer me a full time and moreover it’s only been 3 months.

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?
