SALT, you should totally join 🙂

funny

Idk what you guys are talking about, SALT is the best and we're definitely not understaffed at all. OP should join!

Depends on what you definition for “the best” is. I left compliance and chose not to switch to ITS, but it is a great LoS to be in

M&A and international are closely related but I always felt that international let’s you be more creative. M&A is often super repetitive and at the mercy of the deal team. You get to be a bit more “outside the box” with international.

With that said, I’d recommend m&a for the additional cash. And you make a perfectly good career doing international work in m&a.

Probably SALT as far as exit ops

💯

Depends what you want to do. Fed group will give you the most background. IT is the most in demand due to all the new law changes.

I agree with this

I am in ITS and I like it so far. Wlb is okay and pay is pretty good.

How much?

I’m in SALT but probably ITS. SALT is cool too though, just more limited than fed tax in terms of exit opportunities

As someone in ITS, salty salt for sure. They have more fun.

OP: salt consulting groups have the best WLB of any group. The compliance teams probably have some of the worst from what I’ve seen lol.

Brigadeiro are scrumptious dulce de leche caramel bonbons, a beloved confection of Brazil. Brigadeiro is made from sweetened condensed milk, butter, and cocoa powder which is heated in a saucepan until it thickens and becomes a sticky caramel. Once it cools, it is rolled into a ball and dipped in multicolored sprinkles.

The iconic bonbon was named after Brigadeiro Eduardo Gomes, a 1946 presidential candidate. It was created to win voter support. (He lost).
