At least at EY, TAS is an umbrella group that covers services for transactions including FDD, valuation and modeling, transaction tax, operational due diligence, HR due diligence, etc.
FDD is a sub service line related to the financial and accounting due diligence portion of a deal.

Is TAS technology/accounting system/ERP?

FDD is pre-deal work where you’re gathering all the attributes of the company, etc.. modeling, power points GALORE

TAS is Transaction advisory from my understanding, not really tech, ERP related. And FDD (financial due diligence) is what you explained. Please correct me if i’m wrong

Gotchya too many acronyms haha and don’t know much about TAS

Hi,

Just started a new job less than a month ago in the tech sector. It was the industry I was fixated on when leaving for. However I realise that I don't think I can cope with the fast paced, lack of wlb, with no support - it's really impacting my mental health already....

I try to hide it from my boyfriend, but its impact is flowing into my personal life.
I feel like a failure, but recognise it might be beneficial to cut loss and quit. Has anyone been in this situation?

Any advice?
