Seniors complaining about staff performance is not a new thing. The problem is seniors don't realize how much they sucked as a staff, and they think the new class is inferior...this always happens, I even went through this phase.

@AS1, I wish the best of luck cause wherever you go, chances are it’s the same case everywhere. They are STAFF for a reason.... not everyone develops and learn at the same pace. Be realistic, if obviously they are like a 4 year staff and never promoted, then yes there is a problem and usually those ppl get weeded out

@SC1 the coffee and food runs are not enough to justify a $60k+ salary and a huge hit to budgets everywhere, year-round. It’s frustrating coming from a small firm where people actually recognized that the non-contributors affect your take home salary and the partners’ bottom lines. At the midsize regional firm I’m at now, people can get by two whole years without understanding audit at all, and without really even trying

I have staff that constantly misses check boxes if they were not checked in the system, misses numbers here and there. Gave him feedback about self-review. The next thing I get was return with check boxes left blank...

Feedback was very laid back and I tried to make my staff feel at ease.

Anyone hiring those who have been out of work for a year? I took time off to tend to personal matters, but I am now looking to get back into the workforce again. My previous experience includes time at B4 audit up to senior level and then transitioned to manager in industry. Senior/manager roles are preferred.

I don’t mind audit. However, I’d prefer it not to be at a B4, as I am looking for some semblance of a work life balance.

DM me if you have something above, thanks.

I’ve recently started work at a very young tech startup. Coming from a big law background, this was a huge change of pace/environment. I’m having a lot of trouble getting used to how unstructured the startup is. It feels like hire ups give a set of instructions then talk as if they don’t remember, or then decided rules A, B, C and D applies without being clear this was the case. Is this just the general startup environment? If you experienced this before, how did you deal with It?
