I have never seen an engagement team do SO much work on planning analytics. This is insanity.

I see this a lot. Sometimes it helps to read the audit standards so you know how low the bar is for planning analytics.

People tend to do audits instead of reviews. ..people just go with SALLY because they don’t know what the standard requests

I would say my least favorite part of audit is when senior managers change the format of your workpapers to make it more fancy format wise and show you did more work than was needed.. But don't actually do the work documented and then you have to resolve the partner review comments pointing this out 😅 you da real MVP!

What’s the correct ratio of staff to seniors? I am currently filling out reviews and was astonished that I had 9 to fill out from a recent year-end. Looking back I understand why it felt so overwhelming all the time and why I was constantly on calls or getting pings. What has your experience even and what is a good ratio that balances efficiency with growth? Also - does public vs private client play into it?
