Thinking about going into public after 3 years of industry experience at a publicly traded company. I’m looking to expand my options for work in times like these.. has anyone had experience going from corporate to public accounting and have an idea of my chances of getting hired at a decent salary? I have my CPA if that’ll help.

I have done the switch but it was a long time ago. Staff accountant for one year then switched to tax staff

Depends on your experience. You looking to go into tax or audit? Are you currently in tax or internal audit?

911 Carrera S vs GTS

I really want to do a low key spec on my next car but it’s almost impossible to spec the GTS without black wheels/accents turning it into a more aggressive looking car.

Thoughts on if the GTS in a 7 speed is more engaging than the S enough to justify the compromise in wheel selection?
