Senior Tax Manager Big 4 to Tax Partner Local Firm. Is it a good move? Thoughts/comments/best practices? TIA!

Hi everyone! My names Diana & as a new account manager I’m having a hard time building up my clientele, it seems a lot of companies aren’t up for as much contract work as there used to be. Any tips or companies you may know that would be good to go after? I work for a technical recruiting company and we specialize in contract (otherwise things would be a lot easier) please reach out!

So as a 30ish yo with a government/PE/tech background and CIPM/CIPP… I’m finding privacy work is just much easier and interesting than other kinds, but still pays plenty well.

I just find some firms are unwilling to entertain the idea that anyone but a lawyer has anything relevant to contribute in this space…

I’m seeing the idea of taxing corporations on GAAP income get thrown around. My initial reaction is that it’s a bad idea but I’m far from an expert, especially with taxation. What does everyone here think?

This is probably an odd question, but i just found out that the professor who is teaching a tax class I’m in for school, is the Tax manager from a local firm who is assigned to our taxes as a company (I’ve worked with him regarding our taxes).

This isn’t like conflict of interest or anything right?

Interview tomorrow for a tax associate opening at RSM. Been working in a mid-size city (different firm) that is about 70 minutes from this new home office in a larger metro.

Don’t want to drive 700 miles per week M-F. What will dual model be like going forward? 1-2 times week, 4-5 month? Seems like tax was more flexible than audit pre-Covid

Anyone travel and work from different cities during COVID? Thinking about heading out from the east coast and making our way to the west coast, stopping along the way in bi-weekly/monthly increments until we have to go back into the office.
