Coach
Here is how you do it.
Look at your coach or whoever you want to reach out to's schedule. Stick some time on there with a message:
Hey Xxxxx
Wanted to throw some time to discuss my performance and discuss how I can continue to progress and help my engagements. Feel free to move to a time more convenient. Thank you for your time.
Best,
Tax Associate
I wish my brain dead associates did this more often then just waiting around for me to figure it out. I WANT to help. But I'm a god damn busy person. Meet me half way and I'll do my best to get you on the right track.
This is a great response. I might not know you are floundering because you 1) are overwhelmed 2) not on a good team or working with the best folks/having good seniors above you or 3) just plain incompetent.
I can generally work with at least 2.5 of these 3 and make something positive of the situation. Or if the exit is what you are really needing I can have that discussion with you as well if we both think that may be in your best interest.
Remember too you are still learning this role and also probably learning underneath seniors and managers who might be new and inexperienced in their roles as well.
Not sure if you are at kpmg, but if not, I can refer you to KPMG. I’m in audit and it can definitely lead to more opportunities than tax. Many people I know have ended up staying in audit long term (external or internal) or used the experience gained to pivot into a finance/operational role. I also have colleagues working on blockchain, ESG, or even more technical aspects. Dm me if interested.
Ask yourself what you gain from saying something to someone. Idk what your situation is, but from my perspective I would not tell anyone this. It simply doesn’t accomplish anything, other than negatively impacting your future network/comp/opportunities. Just my two cents.
Keep looking for a new job. But don’t tell your current employer that youre bad at your job and are looking for something else, but haven’t found anything yet.
Totally understandable, thank you for this.
