How many hours are you being forced to work lately? My firm had layoffs, so we're understaffed. Now I'm working 60+ hours a week to cover the extra workload. Employers love to abuse their salaried staff, don't they?

It's also your responsibility to create and hold your own boundaries. It's not your problem they are under staffed and it seems like they can't afford to lose you so just start saying no. Create blocks on your calendar for end of day if they don't listen to you. What are they gonna do, fire you?

Yay, I would start setting some firm boundaries.

Hey All,
I finished a third round interview, and HR contacted me that afternoon saying I had positive feedback across the board and they would contact me the next day regarding next steps. It’s been two days and they finally get back to me saying they haven’t been able to sync with the hiring manager but will keep me posted. Honestly I wish they would talk with the hiring manager and then let me know the decision instead of checking in. It’s messing with my emotions.

Is non profit tax and other tax exempt work such as pension trusts, private foundations, etc. considered a specialty tax line? What’s the outlook of this field and opportunities outside of PA?
