What careers are the majority of accountants going to? I’m currently working like a dog all year long with no real breaks. I get 4 weeks vacation but can’t hardly use one week without some type of interruption or headache

This chart only reflects bachelor degree holding accountants...

There’s no major better than accounting these days, look at the amount of layoffs, it’s only going to get worse. Tell your friends and family to come do accounting now!

If you have an opposing view, why delete your comments? If you have your belief then stand up for them, but don’t be afraid to admit you’re wrong. What’s unraveling with the details around the Breonna Taylor case is what has been experienced many times over now, which is that police tampered with evidence for a different outcome. It’s time conservatives come to the table and admit this is wrong and they were wrong for defending bad police who abuse the system. Deleting your comments is telling.

Are private companies easier to work at than public companies in accounting? We have such an accelerated close deadline at the publicly traded company I’m at now, I really hate the inflexible tight deadlines and analysis seems to drag on forever after that. We also close AP/AR very early in the month yet that doesn’t stop payments/receipts from happening so we’re constantly adjusting our accruals until the end of month. Do private companies start their close after the month actually ends?
