Honestly I've seen quite a few B4 managers move into Sr. Accountant roles when it comes to corporate tax. Its such a broad role that it all depends on the company as to whether or not its a downward move.
You'll definitely be preparing most of your own work in a lot of Sr. Accounting roles. Corporate tax is an evil beast that I don't plan on revisiting.
Title doesn't mean anything. I am an industry international tax manager with 0 reports. I still get paid around 20 percent more than I'd be making in public, with 40 hour weeks being the norm (quarter/year ends are worse but it's a very fast close, I'm only working busy hours for a single week)
You'll never be 100 percent sure. I would think about:
What's the role? Will I be growing or doing an endless cycle of work that doesn't change? What's the business stage (fully developed or still growing)? What's the cultural reputation of the company itself? Is this a new role that opened up or did the last person who was in it leave? Is the tax department purely compliance focused or is there a strategic / legal overlap? Do they work with advisors consistently or on a shoestring budget? Most importantly, do I mesh with the team or is this going to be a very dull place to work?
It's always a risk to change or take on something new. Have to be comfortable with that risk.
Hard to say, depends on the position. If you were pushing for manager at PWC this year then I’d push for manager outside but different companies have different ranks.
Completely depends on the company.. unfortunately across the industry there are large discrepancies on the roles and responsibilities of those roles.
I’ve seen senior accountants that report directly to a VP and they are a senior due to an HR policy that you have to have someone under you to be a manager.
I’ve seen directors who have 1 direct report and really have the responsibilities of a low level manager and they have title inflation.
I think you need to go for the role that fits you best, if you want to make an impact go somewhere where you have a good amount of responsibilities and exposure upwards. If you want to have a pace down turn and want to only work 40 hours then go smaller and check for fewer responsibilities.
In industry title means less because the title itself has less standardization, so it’s all up to you and what’s important to you.
