What are some very prevalent problems you see in employees that led to them being let go from public accounting? Posted: 03 Dec 2018 03:53 PM PST I have read countless time on this subreddit that it is pretty much really hard to get fired from a big 4. However, I know this is a heavily exaggerated statement since top firms are very demanding when it comes to the work performance of their employees. What are some problems you noticed that led to an employee being let go? submitted by /u/articulateassociate [link] [comments]

Should I go back to Public? Posted: 03 Dec 2018 06:12 PM PST Hi, I left Public as a staff because of bad teams/jobs. Now I'm in industry and got an offer to come back to my old firm. I'm pretty bored with my current job but expected to get promoted as part of our year end promotions. However, this doesn't add much besides reviewing a little bit (basically redoing what I was already doing) and a pay bump. I enjoyed the work I did in public and like to be challenged. Is it worth it to go back? submitted by /u/tonksmurdock11 [link] [comments]

So what is the typical career path for someone who messed up in their career development, but completed their degree? Posted: 03 Dec 2018 06:48 PM PST I read about how everyone had an internship opportunity, went to a good school, got good grade, networked properly, went to B4, started making $50k off the bat, and all that good stuff. What if you are someone who didn't get an internship(despite trying), went to career fairs that led nowhere, and are graduating soon? What is the typical career path for someone like that? Would they start off as an A/P or A/R specialist or bookkeeper making $30,000? Or is that person screwed? And that someone may or may not be me. submitted by /u/medunjanin [link] [comments]

CFE 2018 : UNSUCCESSFUL WRITERS Posted: 03 Dec 2018 01:41 AM PST If you haven't been back to the office since results came out today will likely feel like the hardest day of your entire life. I want to let you know you are going to be alright. You are not less of a person or less deserving of the CPA title because you didn't cross the line on your first attempt. Between Friday and Monday I promise your coworkers/management haven't gone from thinking "this guy is brilliant" to "what an idiot". If they thought you were one or the other that will likely stay constant. The CPA is a necessary obstacle highlighting your achievements as a professional but it doesn't define who you are and failing it doesn't take away from all your accomplishments to date. I failed Day 2/3 at a Big 4 firm after getting 3 months to study and all the additional materials and resources the larger firm writers receive. I was so embarrassed the Monday I walked back into the audit room seeing all my junior staff who obviously at this point knew I had failed. My first thought was how is anyone going to take me seriously. I felt like actual shit all through December until I got some real downtime over the holidays to reflect. Life throws us curve balls and perseverance shows character. So unlike all the writers who passed first time your success in the 2019 CFE will be both a testament to your abilities as well as a HUGE HUGE indicator of your strength of character and I can't explain how much sweeter passing will feel. Keep strong!💪🏼 submitted by /u/CPA_done [link] [comments]

Quitting Public - need advice Posted: 03 Dec 2018 04:40 PM PST I am quitting my public firm to go to another public firm because the office vibe is less than ideal. How do I transition out smoothly? What is the best reason to give for leaving? What do I tell nosy co-workers about where I am going next when they ask about it (because yeah, they want to be the first to tell everyone else)? I want to be professional and maintain connections...Advice please. submitted by /u/thooorww [link] [comments]

Why did you pick accounting? Posted: 03 Dec 2018 09:12 PM PST Disclaimer I do not work in accounting (picked finance). I find this sub hilarious and I can relate to a lot of the long hours/shitty work/feelings of despair memes, but was curious you picked accounting over other areas of business? Edit: also if you have any questions about finance I'd be happy to answer, I work at an investment bank in nyc submitted by /u/gobirds69 [link] [comments]

Hi does anyone work for MGO? I got an interview with them for a assurance position Posted: 03 Dec 2018 04:14 PM PST So I got a interview with MGO and was wondering how it's like to work there? What type of interview questions do they ask you? submitted by /u/suzzybean [link] [comments]

Throwing in the towel mid busy season. Need some advice. Posted: 03 Dec 2018 07:23 PM PST Am I supposed to feel like shit?

Coffee chat with PwC partner, what do I do? Posted: 03 Dec 2018 07:07 PM PST Right now I have no idea what I should do or how I should prepare, but I have a quick chat with a partner on Wednesday. I'm a 3rd year uni student who is really interested in working for the B4, and I basically want to show him that I know the hours and the stress, and I am capable of handling it, but that I'm also a good candidate. I don't really have a good answer to "Why accounting" or "Why PwC" and I was wondering how I should prepare for those questions, or what to even expect submitted by /u/Kappadar [link] [comments]
