Uhhhh I just wouldn’t

I read sometime on fishbowl we (ey) trained all these people up on power bi now call them tech people

Idk that’s been my experience with working with them not really tech people , some of them aren’t the strongest tax technical people

The answer is generally both. But compared to a normal tax accountant the answer would be tech.

I think it is a much better team to work on. But it can be slower to advance.

If you value your sanity transfer to tech consulting instead
