How predictable do you think long-term compensation actually is in accounting careers? Early on, the path looks structured — titles, bands, expected raises — but later it feels like outcomes vary widely even among people with similar skills and experience. Curious whether people think comp is mostly driven by deliberate choices or by timing, market cycles, and luck.

If you go for interview and you sort of know that the person interviewing you might be curious about something on your negative on your resume like why is there a gap or why were you in XX role for so long?

Do you address it pre-emptively? Or does that show insecurity and you leave the elephant in the room and wait till they ask you?

I guess this is more in the case of networking than interview like do you make your own story?

Anybody looking for a ticket to US open today ?

So, what clinic do you all go to?

I’ll start it off. I’ve been to 3:
1. RSC in San Ramon, CA
2. Spring in Oakland and SF, CA
3. SCRC in Santa Barbara, CA

I’ve also done outside monitoring at RMA in SF, CA. Multiple reasons for the many clinics if anyone is interested.

Should I expect an income drop moving from CT to Houston?
Currently Tax Associate 1 (2 busy seasons) making 72k at a midsized firm.

I am going to move in the next few month to a location with a higher cost of living due to personal circumstances. I love my current company but I’ve only been here a little over a month, how should I go about requesting if it’s possible to get a salary increase? Might be a stretch but thought it might be worth mentioning.

Can anyone offer advice for workplace retaliation and what is considered a hostile work environment? I believe the HR DIRECTOR is trying to force an employee out because she doesn’t like him. What’s happening isn’t fair and it’s an abuse of power. This is a state government agency.

What’s your love language?

Hi all! I work at a nonprofit and am looking to leave the organization. As I browse available positions in my area, I’m realizing there is a LOT of crossover between my current org and others, for example shared board members, folks who are on our board and employed at one of the institutions I’m interested in, etc.. Is there a way to say “my current org doesn’t know I’m looking, so please treat my interest with discretion” that doesn’t raise red flags? Thanks!
