Is FDD more enjoyable work-wise than Accounting Advisory Services (CMASS, FAAS, etc.)?

Can anyone speak to the culture of the Salesforce practice at Slalom? Mostly curious about work life balance / average hours per week

Has anyone here done advisory/consulting work outside of forensics? (Accounting advisory, financial due diligence, valuations, risk & compliance, public sector, management or strategy consulting, etc.)

If so which do you prefer and why?

Thoughts on PJT strategic advisory?

Thoughts on Citi's Leveraged Portfolio Group at the Analyst level? I'm curious if anyone has additional details on the group for an Analyst spot. What does the group focus on in terms of work, what are hours like, decent exit Ops, interview process etc? I'm currently an Analyst in an industry specific Corporate Banking group at a competitor of Citi so I have experience underwriting HY transactions and portfolio management.

Are the exit opportunities better in Internal Audit/Business Process than IT Audit? All I hear is how awful IT Audit is but don’t hear as much complaining from the business side

Does FDD vary by firm or do they pretty much compete and do the same work? Like which one has the best practice in NYC from the big4?

How is the Deloitte India Corporate Financial Advisory team? In terms of work and culture. Please help guys

FDD/TAS Senior > Restructuring (Rx) analyst or associate (FAS/Banking) - Has anyone seen it done before? Would starting from Valuation instead of FDD be a better stepping stone to Rx banking. Also, I would imagine the best Rx banking exit would be to HL. Is FTI Rx (FAS) considered better than EY-P Restructuring consulting? How about compared to AM Rx (FAS). Thanks for any input!

Please who knows about the advisory practice within the PwC financial crime unit (Canada Acceleration Centre)? I understand it is a client non-facing advisory role. Would it be a good career decision for someone coming from GRC firms like Kroll, Control Risk or Exiger? I am concerned about the negative reviews relating to the PwC acceleration centres in general, and getting stuck in a role which does not provide growth opportunities. Thank you.

Asking for advice: Working at a boutique doing ODD, and have found it not interesting to me due to levels of details. Anyone on the same boat? Would strategy consulting be different? Would product management be interesting?

Which is a better specialization option within consulting? Commercial Operations (sales & marketing) vs. R&D Strategy in Biotech? Would the answer be different if it was focused within Pharma? No Ph.D.

Does anyone have an insight on the kind of work an Analyst does at Deloitte Global Business Services? I was told by the recruiter that this division works on pure play consulting projects. Which I earlier thought fell under S&O (Strategy and Operations) entirely.

Are there any other job titles that I can use in surveys other than an “accountant” if I work in FDD?

Thoughts on CIP and it’s note taking structure? Have you deviated from it or should one not break what’s not broken?

...........buy the dip!

So. MBA from a top 20 program (if that matters), working in the southeastern US with 10 years experience in private practice and hospital administration. Salary thoughts?

Is getting the FRM (Financial Risk Manager) Certification worth it? I could see it opening many doors but should I just shoot for my MBA instead? Have about 3 YOE

How are Projects in IBM ? Any Pros and Cons ? If any idea please do let me know.

So my VP at my previous company felt bad and refused to speak to me or attend my farewell after my resignation. His reason was that I somehow betrayed his trust as he had promoted me just last year (after keeping the position open for 4 months and letting me take additional work load after the previous SM left!). Does this make any sense? I mean where does this sense of entitlement or ownership over the employees come from? No wonder the company in question is kind of facing a literal exodus!

Moved over to a review system called 15Five. It allows you to review your manager. I gave my manager a terrible review. The catch is: they get to “anonymously” see your reviews. Bad move?

Anyone had good multiple offers and had one the hiring managers pressure you into taking the offer after asking for additional time to think about it?

Any thoughts on food (fast casual) and/or lifestyle franchises that are at present, underrated, but well position for growth in the next decade?

I’m (early30s) about 8 months into a relationship with a 40m. Things are wonderful in every aspect, but he is absolutely atrocious with his finances. I felt it becoming an issue about two months ago. He forgets about auto payments and just generally doesn’t care. I sat down with him and looked at everything and even after talking it out he still continues to stress and it’s now causing me stress. I had a final discussion with him today about it and he went on abt how love isn’t enough for me…

Are there any other job titles that I can use in surveys other than an “accountant” if I work in FDD?

Would going to accounting advisory or finance in industry or Ops at a big bank be a better option for career?

I'm a senior in Big 4 AAS but looking to switch to a different AAS group because I'm tired of doing audit support... Would it look bad to go from one big 4 to a different advisory group after a year?

It's that time...🦃

Looking to make a move into Advisory/Consulting.

I have an Audit and Data Automation/Visualization background (was formerly a PwC Digital Accelerator). Any advice?

I’ll be promoted next year to senior but I’m in a niche role where I don’t see myself long term. Should I make a job switch now or should I wait to get promoted to senior? I currently have 1.5 years of experience.

Recently switched from audit to advisory. Not loving it, want to disconnect and switch careers/take a role outside of accounting. Thinking about putting two weeks in before the break without anything lined up. Thoughts?

Anyone heard good things about CFGI? I’ve heard their comp structure is gimmicky with overtime pay. But if I could make the same base there as I do in big 4 with the chance of some overtime pay is it worth it to give it a shot?

How is life in FDD/ what are the most common exit opportunities?

PwC CMAAS or KPMG FDD? I have no idea what to pick, just sick of audit.

I want to get into AAS 😭 CMASS said I didn’t have enough experience to enter as a senior and FAAS is doing a hiring pause 😭😭😭😭

How are hours in CMAAS?

Is there travel often in Deloitte ARA? The job posting says 50% travel but that seems like a lot...
