Isn't it challenging to grow up in corporate strategy? I thought you are max at VP unless there is a CSO role

That’s my understanding too. Corporate strategy sounds sexy on paper (especially for young professionals) but it kinda tops out around VP and can be seen as back office depending on companies. SVP+ with P&L responsibilities would be a lot more influential in industry.

I’m in Tax, and will finish my CPA hopefully by the end of the year (2/4 passed). I’m 31, 5 years of exp in PA, 2 at B4; and I want out. I’m looking to move into the finance world. Equity analysis looks really interesting to me, how can I break into this field? Do I go get an MBA? Do I just start writing analysis on a blog and hope someone likes what I have to say? Any suggestions would be great. Also, how are the hours?
