I left Audit at a midsize firm to join KPMG erp implementation consulting about 6 months ago. So far they seem to only want to staff me on projects with a heavy focus on technical accounting and audit.

I've been on the fence about whether I should stay and hope to be staffed on better projects in the future or leave soon...
