I love scientists online, but in person, sometimes it's hard to converse with y'all.

Very true.

Completely agree. Some scientists feel like they're on a high horse above the rest of the world, and it's very hard to deal with them.

LOL, my best example of this would be once at a symposium, this guy who came up to me was chatting me up about my presentation, and once we were kind of done talking he was like, "oh, I thought your project was this one", and basically told me to my face that he had no idea who I was.

I didn't choose a career where I'd work alone in a lab because of my stellar social skills haha

I’m looking for some resources and/or recruiters to help me find a job in Houston. I worked in Big 4 audit for a year and 4 months. I am currently working in global finance/accounting for a major record label. I would like a financial analyst, staff accountant, or an internal audit position (ordered in preference from most wanted to least). I have also considered joining Big 4 again but only if it is an advisory position like FDD or deals. Thank you in advance!

I started a position a month and a half ago at a large holding company. My manager left after 2 weeks of training me, and his replacement is likely going to be another senior accountant.

Salaries would be comparable (Lilly would most likely be a little more with bonuses), but if the culture sucks, I’d hate to burn a bridge with Envigo.

Which one of us is more right than the other? I'm interested in getting as many viewpoints as possible, whether or not they agree with me or with her. Thanks!!!
