There’s lots of back office accounting jobs at GS…
I once saw someone from tax get a non-tax job. Pretty wild.
Yeah right let’s not lie here…
Girl I know got a family office tax job paying $1M a year. Barely works overtime. I try not to think about it.
There are some out there and you usually hear about them via headhunters. This was in NYC but they are out in LA, SF, Seattle as well.
Nothing too crazy but saw someone go from audit senior to fp&a manager at a F250. And we don’t know a thing about FP&A in the audit side let alone manage an FP&A team.
That’s really motivating! I think everyone eventually wants to get out of PA and Audit. 99% dont become partner and audit can be very unstimulating after a few busy seasons. Although I really do believe Audit is a good fundamental skill for learning about business from top to bottom.
last year an M1 i know (3months as an M1 and 4.5 YOE overall) got a tax director role with morgan stanley. thought that was wild lol
I also know another person who only did two years of FS audit get into MM investment banking.
I’m currently going from tax to private equity/credit
Fund accounting?
Tax manager I worked with went to a small company as CFO. Another tax senior from our team went to a car dealership as a controller.
Saw a 2nd year leave for restructuring consulting
