Energy industry, global fortune 100… base salary of tax directors here are ~$250k with annual bonus and stock often equaling or exceeding that

I did several years ago and never looked back . No more times , no more budgets , no more chargeable hours goals, no more 70-80 hours weeks. Josh do your job and go home . Do you now.. You will thank me later.

Doesn't matter . Any industry job is better than any job in public accounting.

They said due to month-end and quarter-end close they were busy and couldn’t get back to me as quickly for a “good update”.

The recruiter said the CFO enjoyed our call, she, the CFO, will call me next week directly to “discuss some final things”.

Not sure if Im hired or not, but are there any questions about the job, comp (cont.)
