If I switched from Advisory to Tax, would I essentially start at the bottom again?

So you want to switch to tax where data entry is the rest of your career forever? Sounds reasonable

Probably. What level are you? Do you know anything about tax?

Seriously why would you want to do that???

CPA in advisory but I'm on a shitty project rn

Essentially doing data entry... and stuck on this project until end of October. Been stuck on it since January

All my friends in Tax make it seem more exciting

Specialty groups are exciting. Maybe M&A or intl

Tax is not exciting at all

Dude tax is not exciting stop running just because you face a temporary problem

Don't throw a good career in the trash

OP I switched from Audit to Tax and Tax is definitely more exciting for me. I work on much more valuable projects and have learned a ton more. If you are just pumping out returns, it's definitely not exciting, but Tax consulting, acquisitions and even provisions have a lot to offer

We had a few people switch from advisory to tax (transfer pricing which is wayyy more exiting than say auditing). They really like it so far.

I guess if you don't like advisory maybe you'd like tax? It's just absolutely not "exciting" whatsoever

I love ❤️ Tax

My VP keeps asking for next year’s roadmap but every week wants it formatted differently and it’s driving me crazy. They don’t seem to know what they want and I have so much else to do than tweak the layout and colors and notations a few times each week. When I’ve asked what format and level of info the CTO prefers, my VP says they don’t know and I need to be okay with ambiguity. I’m losing any patience and good will I had.

Hi,
I have close to 6 YEO in php (symfony) and recently with reactjs and fluent ui. I also have basic knowledge of azure.
Php doesn’t seem to fetch much money and reactjs I have started very recently. I want to switch for better package and product based company.
I am ready to learn any language but what should I select? Java? Scala? Python? etc
How do I get out of this trap of php.

Should I just learn a language and add directly in cv or learn react and move fullstack?
