I’m a senior auditor with a CPA and CFE certification. Is it worth getting the CMA certification? I might one day want to transfer to industry once I get to an audit manager position in public accounting. I rarely see CMA certifications in job postings, but I think I would be interested in the material.

Not really since companies prefer the cpa certification.

Unless you’re addicted to studying for fun, probably don’t need it.

Chances are, most of the people saying no are not CMA’s. I got my CMA a year after being CPA and it’s helped a lot being in industry. Since industry is your end goal, I recommend it since it helps give you a leg up compared to others.

A lot? Can you elaborate?

I wouldn't care if I saw that.

It differentiates you at the crucial moment. It is good knowledge in some positions where costing is important.

Hi! I started at a new company 2 months ago and while I’m really enjoying my job so far, I’m having a hard time gauging whether or not I’m doing a “good job.” My role seems to be always evolving, which is fine and I actually enjoy being a support to the greater marketing team, but I feel like I need better defined targets to make sure I’m meeting expectations. Also, when I ask my boss what they’d like to see, I don’t ever get a clear answer. (Cont’d in comments)

Hi peeps!
Got two offers on the table, who love to hear your advice!

- Finance Business Partner for a late stage (Series D/valuation 3B) startup tech company

- Corp Dev analyst role for a listed niche gambling company

The tech job pays 15k more, but from what I can see will be a cluster and super long hours (has EU stakeholders). Maybe a pipe dream, but I want to have a "somewhat" decent wlb while still growing my career toward strategy and finance.

Thoughts on which one is better?

I know I should bill a daily rate, but not sure that will fly. Thoughts?
