I got an offer to move to CBIZ tas. Doing B4 audit since October 2024 and going to be promoted to senior in 2 months so will have to leave right before senior promo.

The CBIZ position is also fully remote which i dont think is a good thing at early career for networking and growth? Advice is appreciate!
