I am a tax senior, might get advanced this year to director but now can not even wait few months to know the result and just want to switch to private for work life balance. What roles should i be looking at when switching to private? I have experience of bookkeeping, monthly closing finacials from prior firm and tax experience from this current firm.

Senior to Director? Seems like you’d be skipping about 3-4 levels…

like

Our company's structure is that way it's equivalent to manager, that's why had to wait more years, have 1 year senior experience from prior firm and will complete 4 years as senior in this firm.

Based on the info you share above you should 100% stay until promotion even if you’ll burn bridges leaving after. Director title is much more favourable on your resume

I would wait for the promotion and look for Senior Tax Manager/Director depending on the compensation range you're targeting. Tax positions tend to me more stable.

I'd stay. I read an article today, that its the worst job market in many decades. Unless you have a connection with someone that can get you in, you may not have many opportunities.

Advice: my firm incentivized associates to get licensed in fed courts - 4 fed courts for a 5k raise. They also covered the admission fee. I just accepted an offer with another firm and will be putting in my 2 weeks notice tomorrow. Is it wrong to submit an expense report for the charges I incurred related to the fed court admission fees? I didn’t plan on moving to another firm; the new firm sought me out and made me an offer - the process happened so fast. I want to be professional about this.
