I would just try to stay until the end of busy season and apply for senior accountant positions since you would have had almost 2 years of experience

Chances are you weren't going to be promoted to senior regardless so moving on is probably the best after busy season.

Consider the action items from your PIP and work on them and ask for honest feedback bi-weekly so you can take that experience from EY. You can either improve and continue EY and worst case if not you then use that feedback then to help you in your next job. Are action items more people or quality? Consider if that area would impact next job and you may have same issues.

Was this after your mid year review? Are you on 10 degree?

Well if you can stick it out to the next level, you'll be worth a lot more when you want to jump ship. Otherwise you might hinder your career growth and whichever direction you go could be 1-2 more years behind and make less. Sometimes also consider its not the job, but the people you work with.

Industry positions

Senior or staff depending where you go but I don't think it'd be hard to land a senior role

Biweekly? Twice a week is excessive

I was like woah that would not help the situation 😂

Didn't know that EY3 useful knowledge

Pwc AC Hi all,

I have chronic health issues and I’m severely depressed. I can’t even get myself to work anymore. If I don’t quit, I’m in serious danger of being fired.

I just can’t do any work at all and I’m my anxiety and depression is spiraling out of control. I see a therapist I try to cope and it’s not working.
