Best in terms of which will give the most opportunities if I were to switch to industry at some point

Also which is most helpful for potential overseas opportunities in public accounting

US federal tax is useless overseas... Unless you are looking at tax returns of expats lol. But for opportunities in the US I would suggest Fed.

Been a coach at the collegiate level for 6 years. Make a $65k salary. Want to leave coaching and break into sales/marketing/recruiting/consulting. I have ample leadership and recruiting experience with a strong work ethic.

Is this legal? My spouses company just decided to change their comp structure for account managers.

So now they have to worker harder to get $50k they were already making. (Not a decision based on employee performance, they’ve been crushing it. I think the company is just trying to save money they overspent else where)
