Is transfer Pricing a good area to specialize in as a career ? Is the skill sets globally transferable if I move to Europe or Asia in the future?

It’s a great area with growth ops. It is however very specialized. You are correct that it’s much easier to live in different countries and work as the skill sets are much more transferable than some other areas of tax. One thing that kind of annoying is that if you transition to industry there is a glass ceiling where you would often report to the Tax VP since TP is so specialized. If you want to climb the ranks in industry you need more disciplines and skill sets underneath your belt.

Please help. I’ve moved up the ranks pretty quickly at the company I work for to become a Principal SE.

I’m torn because I do love being an IC but I’m interested in leadership also. What do I do?
