    Team not getting work done

    Posted: 26 Mar 2019 06:58 PM PDT

    Got a bit of a situation that I'm curious how others would approach this.

    I'm manager on low-medium difficulty audit with a small team. Senior means well but has significant gaps in their knowledge & relevant technical experience to the point where they struggle to do the work let alone review it.

    Can't really see a way through this that doesn't cause damage somewhere:

    • If I coach them through this it'll smoke the budget due to the scale of the coaching needed. Senior basically needs full time hand holding and explanation of basic concepts on each WP.

    • Even if I can get the senior to do the work, that means everything gets manager review - again, not something budgeted for. Pushes up everything a grade up & thus smokes budget

    • The parts I have reviewed thus far are showing significant technical holes

    • Can't do the work myself cause then the partner needs to review, again budget smoked

    • Not likely to get more staff, due to busy season. Certainly not of the caliber that can pick up something like this and roll with it

    • If I could get another senior & I've got ego clash issues and budget issues

    • Remove the existing senior & I've got major office politics drama (long story)

    • It's a fair bit of work so self-review is a real concern from my on ethical point of view, not just firm rules

    Now what? I can't exactly will this work into existence, but that's kinda what I need.

    Need to tell the partner this is gonna be a shitshow, but can't do so without some form of plan/solution. Keeping in mind that I'd prefer not the get slaughtered for smoked budget when it's not my fault the senior I've been given doesn't know which side is up. What would you do?

    Starting full time ?

    Posted: 26 Mar 2019 08:41 PM PDT

    Might be a dumb question, but how much of a disadvantage are you out, if you start out full time in audit with no previous audit internship experience? Opposed to having done an internship in it, then starting full time

    I'm an accounting student and my friend is in a band. The band is preparing to start taking things more seriously (merch, touring, recording, etc.) and he's asked me for help keeping the bands finances organized. Anybody have any advice they could give me to help them? I really wanna help them but also don't wanna give bad advice.

    enjoy school before starting full-time or try to get CPA done?

    Posted: 26 Mar 2019 12:56 PM PDT

    I just finished my busy season internship at a mid-tier (bless) and I'm gonna be going back to school for a final spring quarter. I have an offer from a B4 in the fall and I already started up my becker subscription because I was planning on completing the CPAs before starting full time because I thought it was time to be an adult

    ​

    I take it back, I don't want to be an adult anymore

    ​

    after this busy season, my outlook has changed completely. it wasn't terrible but wow, college is so much more enjoyable that it makes me wonder if I should take advantage of the time to complete my CPA exams or if I should do something like travel and get black out drunk for the last time

    International Opportunities

    Posted: 26 Mar 2019 08:54 PM PDT

    Hello everyone this is my first time posting in this thread or in all of reddit for that matter. I'm currently in my sophomore year of college at a community college and plan on transferring to University of North Texas next semester. I was just wondering if there were international opportunities for Accountants with American schooling and what career path I should look into, I've yet to decide what I want to do within accounting since I've only taken Principles of Financial accounting, and Macro/Micro Econ so I'm up to suggestions on career paths since I don't have much knowledge of my options, any comments help thanks.

    Negotiating Work Hours

    Posted: 26 Mar 2019 06:26 PM PDT

    I have my final interview for a smaller company and they mentioned working hours were 8:30-5:30. I would probably rather do 8-5 but not sure how to approach the topic. Anyone have advice on possibly negotiating work schedule?

    New Job

    Posted: 26 Mar 2019 08:34 PM PDT

    Hey guys,

    I have gotten into a new job recently as a complex staff accountant and mainly do AR work but not just entirely. Anyway, I wanted to know whats your guys take on me putting off my studies for my CPA for the time being until I get really familiar with my work and efficient at it.

    ​

    Here's the situation and why:

    Everyday I wake up at 4am to be at work at 5am, study till 8am and start working at that time until 7pm. I am working like 11hrs a day and that is just starting off. (I would like to believe its because I am new and I am still learning) Get home around 7pm and shower, eat, sleep, and repeat.

    ​

    Would you guys say that things will get better overtime or am I just really that unlucky with the job I got?

    Note: This is actually my first accounting job ever.

    Whats your salary after leaving big 4?

    Posted: 26 Mar 2019 11:45 AM PDT

    I'm currently at EY in Canada and want to jump ship in another 2 months when I hit 3 years. I'm going to most likely move to Houston/Dallas to pursue an industry career.

    Was wondering how long did you guys stay at big 4 and what was your salary bump once you left to industry.
