Thoughts on going into accounting advisory (technical accounting, FDD/deals-type work) vs. transitioning into SEC reporting or financial analyst roles?

I’m currently at the 4-year mark in audit, with 2.5 of those years as a senior. I’m looking to move into a role that exposes me to a variety of areas (i.e., not doing repetitive tasks year over year), where I can grow my technical skills, have strong career growth potential, receive a pay bump, and enjoy better work-life balance.

Hello,
I teach 4th grade at a Christian school. I have been teaching for over 30 years but I have been at this school for 2 years. Since I have been working at this school it seems like everything I do in my classroom it's something wrong with it according to my supervisor. Recently, I was told that I am not getting a new contract for the new school year. I have to find a new school. I was told that I am not a good fit for the school.
