why move from EY to GT

I made the move few yrs ago. Opportunities to enhance your tax technical skills is non existent. If you are someone who wants to acquire new skills/enhance current skills, then stay at EY or move to another big4.

After the purchase, there is no partner role outside of audit. If partner is your end goal, I would not make the move. You can get the title of "principal" but will still be a normal W2 employee.

How many YOE do you have?

I think 7 will be a stretch for a SM position. We normally see eight years as the low end of SM. I would estimate comp at around $180-$185K for a new SM.

How is the SALT practice at EY? I might be exploring an opportunity there.

Apply to KPMG SALT. I can give a referral if needed, reasonable comp would be close to 200k in NYC.

Dont bother moving! There is 0 progression in this firm!

To be fair, there is progression. Progress right out the door during the quarterly layoffs.

Is this how it will always be? Or is this predominantly because I am in lower positions at this point in my career?

My goal is to find a similar position to the one I’m working now and add 20-30% to my income, the high range would meet

Need Suggestion.

I am the only developer in my team and my manager has assigned me a project in which I need to create a tool from scratch although that is currently running in production build by third party and we don't have access to that code.

I am on notice period and I am 100% sure that project won't be completed before my LWD.

What should I do, I asked him to put some extra team members but he didn't agree, seems like he will add extra team members 2-3 weeks before my LWD.

I’ve been a freelance print production designer for many years, and usually on-site in the before times. Now I work remote, and am finding it uneasy dealing with billing. Before I always billed hourly, which made sense, but it’s becoming an issue now. Some companies don’t have a full days’ work, so it seems wrong to bill full days, and it allows me to juggle projects for different companies, but my billable hours are down. I know I should bill a daily rate, but not sure that will fly. Thoughts?

Sometimes I struggle with the balance between “pushing myself out of comfort zone” and “being comfortable with who I am”. Anyone feel the same way?
