Is it common to take a pay cut to transition to fp&a role in industry? Currently an audit staff 2 and all 3 financial analyst offers I’ve received are below my current compensation.

How do you approach your current employer/leadership telling them you have an offer from a competing firm at a better salary but don’t actually want to leave.

Hi Sharks,

I have got an offer with Capgemini.

They are postponing my joining stating a strange BGV pending issue.

I have lost a months salary already. Still there is no confirmation on joining date

Can I put my papers within a month of joining Capgemini? Will there be any problem if I do so? And how many months of notice will be applicable if I put my papers within a month of joining Capgemini?

How long after transitioning did you start to feel comfortable in your role? Feeling major imposter syndrome in my first 3 months

Hi everyone,

Is £48k a decent salary in London? That's roughly 3k net/month.
I'm a 27M, single.
I'm thinking of renting a room for 750/800 a month, that leaves me with ~£2100, if I get the Oyster card that's another 150, and for groceries/going out I guess I won't need more than 600/month.
That allows me to save ~£1400/month.
Am I being too optimistic/unrealistic?

Thanks!

Has anybody successfully leveraged a job offer into better conditions at the incumbent firm? I.e. office transfers or better case opportunities - not compensation. Or do people get offers and take them as a matter of course?

RBC vs Neo financial ? For a data engineering position which company is better in terms of work- life balance and career growth .
I know benefits wise RBC is much better but can any one on the technology side tell me if RBC is on par with the industry standards in the data field and it’s not like old technology . During the interview process I got to know they use python 2 which was so surprising.

RBC - 100k with 10,500 bonus ( comes with lots of benefits like employee mortgage rates and no pro

Considering making a switch from Big 4. Comments to share on bonus this year and in a normal year? Culture?

Hello fishes,
I am having 6 and half YOE. Techstack is front end development mostly on Angular. Currently working at a product based organization. I joined this org 8 months ago. This job has really stressed me out and I am on the verge of a burn out. I am considering quitting and taking a break for two months. Is it a bad idea to quit without having another job, especially given the market conditions now ? I really want to a month or two to take some time off and refresh. Pl advise.

We have a great relationship and she’s supporting me to make the bedt decision but idk. I just don’t want to lose our connection.

In some situations I think I’m pretty socially awkward, particularly I never know what to say when someone mentions a family member passing. I was on a video call with 2 project team members and at the end one mentioned she’s attending a funeral for a family member passing. I’ve been with this project team for about 9 months now. The other guy said a few things and expressed his condolences. I just froze even though I knew I should say something but said nothing, and she wrapped the call..

I'm applying for a job that wants at least two business or professional references. Thing is my current job is my first job out of college and I don't want them contacting my current employer. Who am I suppose to list as a reference? Leave it blank although they personally asked for references? List college professors? Ask a coworker to be a reference and not spread work I'm leaving?

I’m a second year tax senior, looking to leave the Big 4. I don’t want to do tax anymore because busy season has been very bad for both my mental and physical health. Has anyone made the switch from a tax job to something more finance/accounting related with a good work/life balance?

Hi guys!

I'm currently working in a long standing tight knit team for around a year. I'm really keen to start interviewing for other organisations for more progression. The only issue is references, I know if I ask any of my small team to be my reference it'll spread and I'm not sure how they will respond.

Is it ok to use references from my previous job (professional services)? Have others encountered this? And if so how did you approach this situation.

Looking to move into corporate accounting role. Started working as a Senior Financial Analyst 2017, my career has progressed and I was recently promoted to Interim Ass Director. I am hesitant to keep position, I want to get back into Accounting and financial reporting. The problem is most senior level accounting roles want you to have big 4 experience. I passed 4 part of CPA exam and was previously a Snr Accountant for a private company.

How do search for non-audit roles that are within reach for someone with core audit experience? Everyone seems to go straight to another firm’s M&A as if that’s the only option.

Has this happened to anyone? Where you go through the interview process - and they call you back saying you did great in the interview and that you'd be a great fit but the role has been filled. So they are going to pass you to other hiring managers and see if you'd be a good fit in the other teams? I'm so confused.

Got an offer from Big4 as an audit senior for 110k, reasonable or should I negotiate? NYC

The most frustrating thing about getting rejected for a job is the excuse they use which gives zero insight into what it really was.

During my interview for a Senior role they asked what I felt was important in my role as an assurance senior. One of the things I said is I felt coaching was an important part of my role and gave my reasons. Their excuse for not giving me the role was because the company wasn't big enough and they didn't have anyone for me to coach.

So I’m in the middle of completing my offer. Background check and drug testing are awaiting results. I’m putting in my two week notice tomorrow. Do I disclose where I’m going to next if those items haven’t cleared? I don’t have an official start date yet. I’m not worried about my results but anything can happen over the next two weeks. Don’t wanna put down a future employer without 100% certainty.
