Not a ton of opportunities unless you go into IA and do the same thing unfortunately....honestly I would stay at EY and get on some IT projects and then you can have better exit ops

Yeah at least to have the exposure to it an IT environment or potentially some SOC reporting. Not saying make your career that because it gets repetitive and narrowed after awhile. But having both sides and the ability to expose yourself to how companies are operating their IT environments is a sought after skill right now and is only going to continue to be as we move toward a lot more automation

Thanks @EY! I don't have a strong IT background but I'm meeting with some people to try and get on some SOC reports.

I am searching for anyone who was like me 6 years ago; sitting in public accounting, while secretly working with my small book of clients on the side hoping to get the nerve to leave. I want to connect with accountants that are ready to make the transition from employee to entrepreneur.

If that’s you – we should chat! I would love to share my experience with you, so you can avoid some pretty common pitfalls I made.

Whoever said employers don’t care about grades and transcripts after your first job was a liar. Every lateral position that I’ve applied to as a 3rd year has requested transcripts. Why do we lie and tell grads that employers don’t check transcripts when they do. My coworker, a 5th yr, had to submit his transcripts also to lateral job. Side note - it speaks volume when multiple associates are trying to lateral at the same time

I was fired last month after a short time at the company. I knew things weren't going well- it was a terrible culture fit & I was also planning my exit strategy. They wouldn't give me specific reasons other than to vaguely say it was performance related. I agree I made a few dumb mistakes (none of any dire consequence) but what kills me is that I tried really hard. I don't want to change careers but I have a deep seeded fear that no matter how hard I try, I will never be a "good attorney".
