I moved from client facing/compliance to internal role (from one big 4 to another) and this is my second week. It is just so weird working 40 hours with no urgent emails/calls or fire drills and no utilization goals this time of year. I had 6 years of busy season so it’s just hard to get out of that mode I guess lolol

I made the same jump but from compliance to consulting. This is weird that I don’t have mountains of emails to reply to or read and no busy season. Aka I’m done at 6 everyday and no weekends. Very very strange!

How was your company affected? And future comp projections?

I jumped for a 40% increase in comp. Similar benefit. Future increase will be lower/slower since it’s internal and I was told to expect avg 5-6% for annual increase/bonus and I’m totally fine with that.
