Is the FASB technical assistant role considered "prestigious"? Seems like my group (FAAS) really tries to recruit them and they come in as a senior with 1 yoe, while my dumbass had to grind in audit for 3 years for the same

Short answer, yes.

Their experience at the FASB is directly related to what we do in accounting advisory. Their exposure to very technical issues and possible standard setting sets them apart.

And they probably start at close to $100k

Yes all big 4 try to recruit from this position, and they are typically paid more than everyone else to start with

Hi- I’m an hourly AA, been on the role for 6 months now and it’s my first AA job. I did not get a raise when I took the job because it was technically a demotion ( I was a team leader at a contact center). I assist two VPs and now they want to add a third because they’re looking for the “ 3:1 ratio “. Should I ask for a raise? Is this normal? I know another AA that handles 3+ people but idk if she’s hourly or salary. Any thoughts?
