I came across a posting for EY’s Passthrough Transactions Analytics tax group. Anyone have any comments about working in this group? Comp is well above what I make currently but would be concerned about hours/wlb/etc

Not the best person to answer this, but I’ll chime in since no one else has. I work in KPMG’s M&A group. PTG (partnership transactions group) is under the same umbrella as M&A tax. Disregard everything I say if you don’t think our PTG group is the equivalent. This is also second hand from co-workers who are in PTG. At kpmg at the senior associate level they have the same utilization minimum as us, 65%. Part of what they do is compliance assists so they seem to get slammed around compliance deadlines. Overall busier than our normal M&A teams, but way less busy than compliance teams. Comp is similar to our normal M&A teams. If you’re coming from compliance, wlb should be significantly better, but the standard of the work is also higher.

I can't wait for things to get back to normal. For my kids to go to school. To see my family again. To travel overseas and explore. To not worry if I accidentally bump into someone. I feel like my kids are missing out on the magic of school (they were in kg and 1st grade when the initial shutdown started). I didn't get to see my nephew and niece since they were born, haven't seen my sister in 5 years (our family reunion got cancelled this summer). That is all. Hoping for a better year.
