Looking to leave Big4 after I make manager this summer. I know the consensus is to not tell your team but I have a close relationship with manager and partners. They are planning staffing for next years audit. Should I be transparent or stay quiet? I’ve heard the team will start reducing hours and I might get thrown on crappy clients.

Anyone work with recruiters that specialize in Fortune 500 companies?

Should I follow up with a recruiter who I talked to about a month ago? They said they will be scheduling virtual coffee with some individuals but haven’t heard back. Not necessarily interviews.

Thinking about leaving Big 4 and going into internal audit (currently about to be a Senior in Assurance).

I like working on controls/SOX much more than substantive. I thought about switching internally to advisory and doing internal audit but not sure what the best move is.

I don’t see myself ever doing a technical accounting role or any financial accounting roles. Ideally I would like to transition to more business operations type of roles throughout my career. Any advice is appreciated!

I want to update my resume. Any websites or people that you would recommend looking at for ideas?

Taking a new role in industry after 2 years in public. It’s about a 70% increase from current salary and between 25-30% increase from expected salary after promotion to Senior (find out later today what my new figure would have been). It’s a remote position making solid money and interesting work/field. Just worried I’m leaving public too soon. Raises will be 2-4% in new role until promotion so I will catch up in public about 3-4 years from now. Thoughts?

Has anyone used a tool / questionnaire to determine the best career for you that provided good insights? Not sure I can be in PA for the long haul and want to pivot in the right direction.

For those who left big 4 to join a startup, are the hours still crazy? (60+) I’m on the fence leaving my b4 tax job (70k) to join a startup (100k+). Would be a jump from TCII to Senior Accountant.

Just got an offer from B4 Finance Transformation manager - is £165k good? Would I be able to increase my income over the years or is the pay capped after a certain point?
