What are my options if i dont want to work in taxation anymore. I like working and numbers but just that I don’t think i am not that smart and I don’t want to work long hours. I am in Toronto and I like a 9-6 schedule, fair salary and family time. I am a senior associate and have a BBA+MBA no CPA.I am critical of my performance and people like me. Just that i had enough of crazy hours and managers/snr managers who take long breaks during day and make me working until 2 in morning! Please suggest

Are you in public accounting? If so try industry! I spent 8 years in public prior. Now I work 830-5. I’m involved in forecasting, strategic planning, and assist financial reporting. We are implementing new tax software so that’s an interesting project for me. I’m really glad I made the move instead of starting over.
