Was helping my grandfather with formatting in a Word doc the other day...
Him: *clicks a button and the whole document shifts, messes up formatting that he has been tinkering with for hours. Cue him flipping out, police sirens in the background*
Me: *whisper shouting from the back of the room* crtl+z, ctrl+z, ctrl+z!!!
Him: *searches the keyboard for a solid 45 seconds, hits buttons* WOW...that fixed it!!!!
It’s the simple things in life, folks

10/06 Thread (BC):

I’ve spent 4 years in Big 4, with about half that time in FDD. I feel like Corp Dev is what I ultimately want, but am wondering if a stint in banking could be worth it. If I’m not interested in PE or other buyside alternatives, is the pit stop in IB worth it?
Mainly wonder if IB is a must have box to check, or if you can work your way up the ladder without.

Is Cognizant Consulting same as Cognizant Business Consulting? And how much it is different from CTS?

I have heard very less flow of work in PWC AC’s. Does this mean recession impact has begun and they can start terminating employees on bench???

Is it normal to not get a perfect review? Just curious . Does everyone pretty much get some sort of constructive feedback?

Hello, in my previous organisation I worked in development domain (Oracle IAM Tool and Java)and my post was software Engineer, i joined Wipro as project Engineer in April 2022 and was assigned non technical project as an analyst.

I fought my way hard to get released from the project. However my designation is changed as Analyst. Should I ask for change in designation as I know that analyst is non-technical profile? Would my designation impact my future role as well?

Hi folks , what’s the salary range for Wipro Europe development centre (iDeas D&C) for B3 level Sr consultant ?

My coworker keeps leaving terrible jokes in the comments on our code, and some of them are vaguely sexist. Should I tell them to keep the code clean?

What is this "Tax Tech" I keep hearing about?

I hate tax and I’m a senior 2, what can I do to get out?

Have people been getting bonuses or mid year raises now? Saw something on a Deloitte bowl I thought.

Talked to people that I decided to move from one big4 audit group to another big4 advisory. Discouraged by how people reacted :/

Spilt coffee on myself this morning for all my fallen staff this busy season #onlythegooddieyoung

I get so nervous before meetings, my mouth dries up and I go to the bathroom couple times. How can I deal with this?

It annoys the hell out of me when random people refer to basic deductions and capital gains structures as “loopholes.” Anyone else?

Currently have $10k in student loans and $30K in savings. Graduated in May and deciding whether or not I should pay them off. They are not accruing any interest right now, due to interest being halted on federal student loans. Some are saying student loans could be forgiven in the future. Would it make sense to write a check and pay them off now?

Has anyone let their counselor know they plan on quitting prior to give your notice?

We stay until 8 or 9 everyday and then at the end of every week my manager tells me to book only 40 hours. It sucks ass and now I have to explain to my counselor why my utilization is so pedestrian...

People who write long ass paragraphs on here 🙄 it's not a work paper

I am interested in a job at moss adams in Arizona. Does anyone have any input if they like moss adams? Are they flexible with working from home? Do they push a lot of hours?

I don’t care about the hours, the work, the pay, etc. What really made me feel like I fell for something in recruitment is “we are a family”. No. It’s so cliquey, nobody hangs out after work...

Did someone get fired in the new manager training in Orlando after getting drunk?

Has anyone taken a Florida CPE ethics course that was easy?

When our Q2 internal sign off was at 10 am yet our client still hasn't given us the work papers we need to complete anything 🙄

Advice needed: looking to leave public accounting and tax for good. I have two offers between a financial analyst and an accountant role. Based on your experience, which of the two has the best/better exit opportunities (should I decide to pursue the finance realm or something else) and better work life balance? The bigger pay as an analyst is tempting, but the company benefits are meh.
