I’m in FDD but M&a tax is a lot more value add to the M&a process. You also make more usually

True

Transfer to FDD as a tax manager is tough even if the market picks back up.

I almost pulled it off, however market turned and was told I would be on a short list for spring 2023

FDD as a tax manager is real tough. Theres certainly no guarantee. It’s especially hard at the manager level, you don’t know a single thing on the job. Go with M&A tax it pays more than FDD.

I agree FDD is tough,but it’s what has interested me the most ( know a few people in the group, interview process, trainings, etc.). However if I had to be stuck in tax I would prefer m&a tax. I agree that the transition would be easier.

Agreed m&a tax is more value added and forward looking whereas fdd is still backward looking.

M&A tax probably pays better than FDD, if you want to make a career out of it. Seems pretty interesting too, get to structure complex PE deals

M&A tax makes more
But if you don’t like tax then obviously that’s a key factor

I thought I found the perfect position in March but I was let go today. I was blindsided. Never a complaint, my reviews were excellent and I got along well with the owners. My only issue was the PEO not speaking with me and going directly to the owners with her agenda. I asked ownership to work with me and I would pull the PEO in, if necessary. Apparently, they have a longstanding friendship and he does not think of them as a vendor as a friend. She suggested a on-site PEO rep and out I go!

From my perspective, I just want to preserve this expensive piece of furniture that we both love. Am I being unreasonable?
