I need an opinion. I know studying for the cpa exam is super hard and very time consuming. But would you say it keeps you so busy to the point you can't help a friend get a job as a call reference?

The Way to a Higher Salary? Leave.

If I had stayed in the role I was in originally and grown with it, I’d be making maybe $120k, best case. I also wouldn’t have broken 6-figures in under 4 years by waiting.

The biggest lie that companies tell you is you can grow in a firm, both professionally and financially. The only ones that grow are already the people a) getting the promotions, or b) on the sales side.

If neither applies to you, the fastest way to achieve salary growth is to leave.

Hello Fishes,
Just a little weird question, suggestions will be helpful.
My cousin wants to enter into the IT industry but his graduation is from non Tech (B.A). So I have suggested him to persue and MBA in IT or MCA may be from distance learning will also help.
Please give suggestions which will be the most feasible way to enter the IT industry, given that he is financially not much sound but he is very smart and hardworking.

Have an offer for Cognizant and Persistent Systems. Which one is a better company??

Got an offer at a startup Sr BI Analyst for 120k base and 10k in equity. I had an informal call with the new manager today where he told me these numbers and I said I would take a day to think - they sent over a formal letter via Rippling.

Im going to counter offer in the morning, I guess by sending an email? Thinking about aiming for 5k bump in base and 10k bump in equity? Is that unreasonable?

Last year I moved to a new city to be with my girlfriend after she took a new job in that city. One year later I realized this was the unhappiest year of my adult life. I don’t know if it’s because of my relationship or because I’m in a new city with less friends/social life. 27M

Are hours really much better in industry? I’m very tired of big four hours

Those of you who left for industry, what do you work towards in your role? I was reflecting on my time in public and there was always something, whether it was a new section in the file, getting more client contact, getting invited to a big golf outing, running the jobs, managing the jobs, etc. I worry that leaving would leave me bored and not motivated to hit any sort of goal. I’m burnt out and worry that I’m making a rash decision lol. Thoughts?

I’m a little confused on the electric vehicle tax credit. I’m filling out Form 8936 and it appears to have a maximum credit of $2,500. However, I am reading that the maximum credit is $7,500 if your tax/AGI meet the criteria which it does in this case. What am I missing here? The form clearly shows $2,500 so where is the $7,500 coming from? Also, is there carryover to next year’s return if all of it isn’t use? Looks like maybe form 8834 if I’m reading it correctly?

Thank you.

Anyone interested? I’m a tax partner in Deloitte’s business tax practice, and seeking a manager/senior manager with strong operating partnership/PE portfolio company experience.

I’m not a recruiter but would help shepherd potential candidates through our process. Chicago/Milwaukee location preferred but not required.
