So I got a below expectation evaluation as a senior manager in industry. I realized even though I have 10 years of experience, I was never good at my job. I jump every time and get a pay and title bump. This is my 5th job. I was fired once before. I just don’t know what I can do if I don’t go find an accounting job if I get fired from my current job.

Do you use chatGPT or claude? Honestly you can lean heavily on AI and that should at least make you decent at your job.

Get the hell out of that place. It is nepotistic and they are well understaffed. Go into a smaller firm that will appreciate you and always use Blue J and GPQ. One other suggestion would be find a job in private assistant controller or controller. Also get your CPA or EA as a minimum. There are thousands of jobs out there and you can possibly get help with linked in. Good Luck.

Since you’re in industry, take time to learn things. Spend a couple hours a week learning a topic, even if very high level. If you have an outside advisor, see if they have some webinars that you can attend.

This is very true

Find an accounting shop with a good team under you…. Then you get to empower them and lead.

Agreed

And now you see the pitfall of frequent job hopping and why it is frowned upon in interviews. I immediately discount 10 years of experience when someone has had 5 jobs in that time.

One of the job was a new line of business and I was fired in 4 months. I didn’t list it on my resume. I did have one job that lasted 4 years.
