Might be worth checking out law firms if you’re an attorney? You’ll probably get more of that work there.

OP, are you still at KPMG? I know our tax controversy group was recruiting for rotations recently.

No, you can work in tax controversy full time as well.

PwC has a robust Tax Controversy and Regulatory Services (TCRS) group, but the Transfer Pricing team split off a number of years ago. They collaborate when appropriate but aren’t part of the same team if that matters to you. The TCRS team is majority attorneys.

KPMG's head of tax controversy recently joined GT.

Hi Fishes,

I'm currently in talk of joining ZS Associates, with ~5 YE from industry (healthcare/life science) and 7+ YE in total. It sounds from the recruiter that it's
more likely to come in as an AC first, not a C unless proven otherwise during the interviews. Should I even consider this opportunity since it might be a 'step-down’ from my current position, and might not look as good in my resume? Is it true levels at ZS are higher than other firms, MBB, B4, T2?

He accidentally dropped his paystub on his way out one Friday and was shocked to see how much less she was making. We were both staff level. I had more experience but still shameful that 2 staff levels had such a huge wage gap. I never told her.
