I'm currently 2nd year associate in tax at big4. My career coach told me they want to promote me to senior in November. I am not willing to leave my teams without support right before the busy season; is it worth staying for another?

I don't know if I want to stay in tax, and want to try GL actting in industry/advisory. In interviews they all want ERP experience/Financial reporting exp, which I'm not going to get here in tax. Is it better to jump to industry as an associate and move my way up?

It’s easier to jump to industry if you work in audit now.
I can’t find any roles in industry- unless it’s c-corp tax experience, and I don’t have that, like that.

“Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response” -Viktor Frankl

What do you do when you make the wrong career choice?

Forgive yourself. No one is perfect. You are learning. Wrong choices are part of the learning process.

Ask for forgiveness if your choice negatively impacted another.

Work on recognizing the space between stimulus and response. Ask for help if you need it.

All of the above will help you make a better choice next time.

Thoughts: Managers and senior managers should intervene when project folks starts working more than 8 hours. It's sad that initially everybody talks about 8 hours work goal but employee forced or end up working more than 10 hours. Company is not asking you to work more than 8 hours, it's the pressure from peers and seniors and managers who do "a gentle request" to finish a task asap.
Also managers, Please teach new techies to hold the horses and not put there peer in pressure.
