Manager’s code for: ‘But make sure that report is done by Monday.'

Hi All! For those that have had HSGs/saline sonos done, did it mess up the timing of that cycle? I’m going on 2 weeks after my period was supposed to start (and am not pregnant) and frustrated because my doctor is waiting on my period to start in order to start with IVF. Thanks in advance for any insights you may have!

I have several job offers I am considering. My dilemma is when I put my resignation in for my current employer should I tell them why I’m leaving? (Toxic environment passive aggressive behavior from superiors
And staff that habitually didn’t do their job thoroughly and I was prohibited from writing them up?) thoughts?

I put in a lot of effort to show my client properties that fit their requirements, but they ended up working with a different agent just because they wandered across an open house. I'm so frustrated right now. Has anyone else experienced this?

Is it better to use the “apply through LinkedIn” function on company recruiting websites, or to upload your own resume? I sort of like how much info my LinkedIn offers, but my resume is nice and neatly designed and more concise. Thoughts?

Director level salary (base,bonus,stock) at Avanade? Any input? Thanks.

Once you get into a FAANG company, is it better to stay where you are or move around? I’m a dissatisfied with my current job but I have vesting stocks, work 9-5, and people to know and respect me. I am the sole provider for my family and value quality of life and stability. I have some interview requests from other FAANG companies that I know pay more but I worry about starting over. Anyone switch companies and either regret it or are glad they did?

Hi HR Professionals! I am revising our current employment application form. Per SHRM, I was just curious if any HR Professionals completely removed the following fields: social security number, recommend salary, graduation dates, military discharge info, race, maiden name like (Ms. Mrs. Ms), & criminal history questions. I was just curious what other Employers/HR Professional have done. Any information is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Anyone from EY-Parthenon, what does a typical senior consultant look like resume/experience wise? If I have audit and FDD experience as a Senior for 3 years (currently in FDD), a CPA, no MBA, is that enough to get in to EY-P? Or is the MBA basically required? What would I be missing? Thanks!

Nervous to make industry jump bc I’m not an excel wiz. Obviously depends on the role but curious if anyone else in a similar situation?

I joined EY in January. Had no work all of January, but was busy for February and some of March. I have been unassigned for about 4 weeks now, sending availability emails to all of the service lines we are allowed to reach out to for work. I should not have come here 🤦🏼‍♂️ I know it’s nice to have some down-time, but when every day is staring at a computer, the days are SO long.

To the person who pisses all over the seat of the private bathroom: we know it's you. Cut it out.

I am WAY TOO nice to be in public accounting….

Does anyone know what the starting salaries for Tax Associates and Technology Risk Consultants are within EY? I’m interested in joining on of these two positions but I’m unsure of salaries. TIA!

DC advice request. Just moved. How's the dating environment here?

I want to break my lease. Do you think it will be hard to find someone to take over the lease with all that is going on?

Dumb questions but genuinely curious:

1) Let’s say you’re a recent undergrad candidate with no internships on your resume. What’s the deciding factor that you’re qualified for Advisory vs Tax vs Audit? Is it school, gpa, etc.?

2) Why can’t you switch from Tax to another SL without having to pull strings? I understand that there’s a difference in tax vs book experience but why does the Accounting field gatekeep other SLs? It’s not like we’re incapable of learning other areas.

There's a ton of self help and leadership books out there to help people in their careers. If there was one that was written front the lense of a public accounting, would you read it?

Can you negotiate PTO at annual review?

I’m literally so miserable in industry. I have been at it a few years and it’s boring. My boss likes to act like every minor issue is a 10 when it’s a 3 and creates emergencies where there aren’t any.

Thinking having a 24’ HD and a 28’ 4K monitor setup. Is 4K for excel not necessary? How about 28’ monitors?

Hey can anyone shed light on the Technical Accounting Consulting group at RSM compared to Big 4 (EY FAAS) with regards to work life balance / middle market client demands / flexibility?

What would you choose and why? Core Tax, SALT, or International

Is the Supervisor role at RSM equivalent to the Senior role or the Manager role at traditional firms?

Constantly bugging partner to sign off my CPA experience... what's the point of incentivizing the license to get promoted if I have to keep nagging you to sign off
