First question is how you plan to switch to audit? I don’t see a whole lot of skills overlap between SALT and audit. You willing to start over as a staff?
I made the jump from tax to controller, but about 5 months in and it’s a difficult transition. The financial function was a bit of a mess and I’m working on improvements now but it was extremely difficult. While audit experience would have helped me I think a familiarity with the internal systems are reporting tools were the biggest learning curve and I don’t think audit would have helped that much. It’s a perceptions thing but if you can convince someone to take a chance on you that can be your transition over
I’ve seen an audit manager take on the role of director of finance for a professional sports team which is below CFO but I would imagine that the person can be promoted into the CFO role. Hope this helps.
Ehhh I think probably starting over in audit is waaay easier than getting a Harvard MBA lol Also would avoid six figures worth of debt. Audit has many exit opportunities. Now whether you end up as CFO of Microsoft is another story
Which is better among Synechron Inc.CoforgeMphasis . CTC in descending Coforge (29lpa has 5% variable > Synechron (27 fixed+ insurance perks) > Mphasis (25.3 lpa + gratuity). Any leads will be helpful 🙂. Comparison can be on wlb, work culture (work quality, leaves, other perks).

I left salt to go to fed as a senior. Thank god. Salt is too pidgeonholes imo

Just 4, it was a pretty peculiar role that I was the perfect fit for on paper so they took a chance on me

You got a better shot if you ace your GMAT or GRE and go to really really good MBA program. Don't bother if its a mid tier.
