I'm currently in a tax specialty role where I'm more of a tax analyst than a tax accountant. Never done a return. I'm thinking about switching to industry and getting into more of a finance role...

...or some kind of analyst position. What is the best time in my career to leave for industry... to be able to transition but also maximize my compensation? I don't want to be only thought of a tax person.

What have you thought about the move?

I like it so far. I had dealt with assets in tax and moved to an asset role in industry. So slightly different, but still what I like to do. Also nice to leave the office by 5/5:30 everyday and receive a legitimate bonus

I'm looking at more of finance analyst or business analyst position. Do you think that will be an issue coming from tax?
