I'm considering a TAS Senior position at Plante Moran. Does anyone have insights on work/life balance and what kind of hours the group typically works? I'm transitioning from Big 4 Audit as a Senior 3 and am also curious how this might affect my career trajectory. Thanks in advance for any help!

Email from leadership last week. We can go back as soon as 7/5 with permission. Had to let our boss know. Phase 1 will begin in July and go through end of Sept, provided schools are re opened. Future phases will be announced at a later date. So, I guess at this point in time, things are still up in the air.

Can someone please let me know what is the average yearly hike provided by Harman international India (HII) not HCS.

Which one is better to join HII or HCS in term of WLB, growth and yearly hike?

Hi Sharks,
I have got offers from Bosch and Harman which one should I choose? I don’t have that much knowledge about Harman International. They both are giving similar CTC.

I have a interview coming up for a Program Manager Role and curious if anyone here is a program manager and wouldn’t mind sharing their Salary and top 3 responsibilities. I want to make sure I am being compensated fairly.

Solid background and thinking of a dual MBA/MS degree at H/S. Class of ‘19 — worth applying R2 or wait a year? Didn’t get in the H/S deferral program in 2019 and heard this year is quite competitive.

How stressful is it to work in a call center? It seems to me that the supervisors would be the micromanaging sort

Follow up post to my last post…My husband was laid off from the company where I also work. I am feeling really isolated / depressed about working and moving forward. I’m also getting to a stage where I’m really sad that people haven’t reached out to either my husband or myself to send well wishes or provide support. It’s like they don’t know what to say or I make them feel awkward so they don’t bother…I’m trying to focus on a few that have been supportive but it’s hard…Any words of advice? 😞

Thoughts on internal vs external IT audit? Which do you prefer?

Is there any advice for networking into projects when you don’t know many people at the firm yet? I always to help on BD work when I’m on the bench, but it never turns into any billable work. Every time I have talked to a partner/senior manager I was told I don’t have the skill set they’re looking for, but I don’t know how to build up from there. Feeing very lost but I want to improve my approach.

Hey everyone, I am a 6+ years experienced Salesforce developer and I am currently looking for a job change but only remote/WFH options.
Can anyone please suggest me some good companies in India that provide competitive salary and work life balance?
Thanks!

Differences between GT and BDO for FDD?

I’m moving to a new state and know absolutely no one there. How do I go about finding a roommate?

EY TARAS or EY GCR??? Between these 2 service lines which has better pay and opportunities??

How is the FDD presence for BDO/GT/RSM FDD in the South/Southwest? How is the workload and compensation compared to the Big 4?
Have heard that the mid-tier you get more exposure to the entire deal process, is this true as well? Any insight is appreciated.

Currently a staff in audit - 6 months in. Glad to be learning a lot, and have had a generally positive experience at the firm other than a few interactions, some tough busy season nights. Really been intrigued by TAS/M&A, however, and had a few convos with a senior in TAS i know at the firm. It’s closer to what I studied, but don’t know how to make the jump as it seems an internal transfer could take 6+months/senior rank and a lot of convincing. Is it better to jump firms/has anyone done this?

Anyone in tax m&a left for industry? What role did you take and what was the pay like? JD here but interested in both JD and CPA’s experiences.

Why do deals move at a breakneck pace all the time? I don’t understand the urgency put on this work for every single deal. Is it deliberate to avoid lengthy diligence / lots of questions? All these deadlines are arbitrary

What is the difference between financial due diligence (FDD) and delivering deal value (DDV) at PwC?

For those in big 4, how much time between accepting an offer and start date have you been able to ask for? Is a month feasible/how should one phrase it? Two weeks just doesn’t feel like enough with this heavy burnout/having to wrap up deals at old firm

Anyone at EY or Deloitte? Trying to apply for FDD position.

EY: What's the difference between
SaT - Transaction Support - M&A and
SaT - Transaction Diligence????
JD seems to be almost identical.

Deloitte: What's the FDD equivalent position in Deloitte? I only found manager position so I was not sure about it.

Anyone in FP&A hiring?

So fed up with my practice and not looking to stick around for typical below-market compensation in October.

Which big 4 firms or MM have the best FDD comp. so far? Excl. A&M (I know their comp., over half our practice has quit to go there lol)

What would be an exit opportunity like for someone with both FDD and CDD experience?

Is it not even worth to applying for a position if you do not meet the minimum experience listed?

Any transfer from tax to FDD? How was the learning curve from the transition ? And what were some unforeseen challenges that you didn’t expect?

Is the CPA required at non-Big 4 for FDD/TAG? If it's required, what level is it needed at?

Has anyone tried to get an extension on an offer and they push back?

Does anyone know what the BDO TAS interview process is like?

Best books for U.S. Corporate Tax similar to Logic of Subchapter K for partnerships? I’ve historically worked extensively with partnerships and starting to branch out into more “Core” corporate M&A Tax and looking for a helpful resource to get up to speed.
