Will I get fired if I tell my bosses that I don’t want to do loan staff anymore?

If you don't tell someone, how do you expect to ever change projects?🤔

You’re right! Thank you

Give them something actionable rather than telling them what you don't want. "Hey, I have an interest in the tech industry, do you think I could get staffed on a tech client?"

That’s a great idea.

In this market, I highly doubt they’ll fire you! Tell them you’d prefer something else. If you have an idea what it is, tell them. Or ask their opinions?

No, but if you don’t express it, they’ll never know. You also will need to be able to find other engagements lined up that can replace your hours. If you’re a full-time loan staff, they wouldn’t just take you off. Probably would need to spend some time looking for a replacement and then you would slowly transition off as you pick up other engagements. There’s a few accounts in my office where we always staff new hires on them for six months and then when we have a new batch of new hires, the older new hires roll off and the newer ones replace them. I will admit that sometimes it can be next to impossible to roll off an account. I’ve had friends who repeatedly asked to roll off an account and they were told no. They ended rolling off the firm instead

I’m at that point of rolling off the firm.

Doesn’t sound like you’re losing much if you’re miserable.

I feel you dude. I hated loan staff. It is the worst of both worlds (boring corp work with consulting hours and pay). A good thing out of it though is that you will be in a good place if you ever want to jump to industry. Industry prefers candidates with ERP and accounting experience, which I am sure what loan staff does. Hope at least you could get something out of it. If you really don't like it, you should tell the team and see what happens. Good luck.

Okay - can someone explain what a loan staff is? Why do you get a separate computer? What are the benefits? How can you get staffed on this? (from PwC btw)

And if they fire you there are plenty of other firms hiring right now.

Is this just because I never get to work with other juniors and don’t see the mistakes they make, and that it’s relatively normal? And FWIW I went to HYS and I’ve had a clerkship so it’s not like I’m not smart
