Second year in B4 Audit and have narrowed my job search down to 3 options:
CFO Advisory at T2 Consulting
FP&A at prestigious merchant bank
Technical Accounting at another B4

Any thoughts? Assuming pay is immaterial between each opportunity.

If comp is the same, and you would enjoy all of those roles, I’d stay in B4. No matter what you’ll always be able to exit high out of B4

Technical accounting at a big 4. Great skillset with lucrative exits.

What CFO advisory would that be? Sure it isn’t just vanilla AAS?

Yeah I think this is the question that needs to asked since it varies between different firms

CFO Advisory should help you pivot out of an accounting function - I’d go with that option if that’s your goal.

What’s going on FB friends,

I am contemplating a move to industry working at a VC, Tax Director role east coast. Looks like it will be primarily overseeing compliance with some aspect of advising on structures etc. There is another tax reporting head above me.

The potential comp is the low 200k with a 10% bonus (still higher than what I am making). I feel this is pretty low for VC standards but maybe my standards are also too high. I have generally seen 25% bonus with carry.

Any thoughts?
