Received 2 offers from an accounting firm and one from an engineering firm. Both pay are good with a slight difference of $2K. Accounting is within the audit space and as an admin, work is 7 hours, get summer off and benefits start on first day. Engineering firm is 8 hours a day and benefits doesn’t start after 3 months probation. The accounting firm employs only 250 (not a big 4). Engineering firm only 90 people but they’re growing. Kindly help with some sound advice. Thank you 🙏

From the facts you mentioned - accounting, if that’s important for YOU.

But, listen to yourself how you feel about the two different teams, where can you see yourself work? Which team would fit better? I’d decide based on that since there aren’t any big differences.

Thank you, the learning curve is simple, but the role will be plateaued. No means of promotion as an EA unless if I go into accounting designation.

I would ask yourself your career plan what would best set you up for that? Also who did you actually enjoy talking to the most? Also benefits comparison for your lifestyle. Also what’s more important work life balance or kinda traditional setting?

Thank you. Been asking my husband same thing and he said that a a tough one. He mentioned due to my PMP certification, I can certainly use it within engineering space. But work life, he said you have no 4 day work week. Both jobs are stressful.
