I am currently furloughed since my client has funding lapse. I put my resume out and I have an interview with Grant Thornton. Things are good at my job, but if offered a job with GT should I take it?

I went from Deloitte to GT and highly recommend. Flexible time off is highly underrated and it's a less stressful environment

Furloughed?!?! They authorized charging to overhead for those affected. You’re on the beach!!

Blame the government not Booz. GT is a contractor too and could also be similarly affected. All contractors are affected. Leaving seems shortsighted.

I am not blaming anyone. It is what it is and I just want to get paid. Not sure if it’s worth making the switch now

@OP I don’t get it. You work for Booz full time, but were not getting paid, because of the shut down?

Can someone tell me what tax staffs do day-to-day/in busy season?

Would you rather try to get promoted/climb the career ladder or try and grow your side hustle into a larger enterprise while working your day job?

At the same time I’m also pursuing a side hustle that can be lucrative if done correctly but comes with more risks. Would you 1.) try and get promoted while pursuing a side hustle or 2.) stay in current role and focus on side hustle?

Well here is a new issue I am troubleshooting today.

I suppose celiac impairs a major life function - eating, and is a disability. Thoughts?
