    Me doing an inventory observation, during busy season, when one of the managers mistakes me for a store employee and starts grilling me for counting too slow

    Me every morning looking in the mirror telling myself to quit Public Accounting.

    Leaving public after 5 years. What was the point of it all. Rant.

    Posted: 12 Jan 2022 03:45 PM PST

    Started in MCOL in 2016 at 56k. Leaving after 5 years at 82k. Going private for 86k. And I've seen plenty of people here say they're starting at 65-75k now. So the money really isn't that good. It's also not enough to buy a house where I live, anything decent is 375k minimum. ( I'm talking <2k square feet and in a decent neighborhood, nothing fancy).

    I developed multiple health problems in the past 5 years. Teeth grinding, my shrink increased my anti anxiety meds dose, and two other things that are TMI but have caused a lot of pain. Not to mention all the sleep deprivation.

    I have missed out on more social interactions than I can count bc of work. As a result I'm 28 and still single even though I'd love to be married. Thankfully I do have a few quality friends but I know I'm not gonna meet a spouse if I'm just working all the time.

    I worked my ass off in college to get this degree because I thought it would make me wealthy or at least financially stable. I grew up poor so this was important to me. I remember digging coins out of the couch to help scrape up enough money to pay the electric bill and get the lights turned back on when I was 10 years old.

    Now after 5 years in school and 5 years working in public I have dedicated a decade of my life to this. And I feel it wasn't worth it at all. I wish I had left public after 2 years. Just my 2 cents.

    You know recruiters are desperate when...

    Posted: 12 Jan 2022 10:20 AM PST

    I asked for pay range and job description up front, and for the first time one actually replied with the pay range and a detailed job description.

    It's 100% in-office so I'm not interested, but I was still shocked.

    Me, an intern, seeing LinkedIn CPA pass posts and reading Reddit comments about how people can’t cut it in Big4

    Posted: 12 Jan 2022 04:32 PM PST

    I take a 40 min break everyday to work out and it has improved my mental health. Busy season life

    Posted: 12 Jan 2022 12:29 PM PST

    I encourage all of you who are working long hours to take out some time for yourself. It will definitely improve your mental and physical health (and improve the quality of the WP's - ya whatever who cares )

    F it ?

    Posted: 12 Jan 2022 08:16 PM PST

    I just want to spend my time learning piano, getting fluent in another language, trading/investing, and running my own business. That is my ultimate goal.

    I'm only 22 about to be a fresh grad starting in public tax accounting and I have no motivation other than not being a "bum"with no income source to continue down this path. Idk I kinda wanna just take the plunge and do the things I wanna do. Life is too short not to but so long that I want to spend every moment of it doing the things I want. Life is strange in that way.

    I suppose I can call this a quarter life crisis

    KPMG auditors forged documents to avoid criticism, tribunal heard

    Posted: 12 Jan 2022 07:16 AM PST

    Just found out I’m expecting my first child and I may get a new job.

    Posted: 12 Jan 2022 06:25 PM PST

    Hi folks. As the title says, I'm expecting my first child in about 8 months. Came as a surprise. Also had been applying for jobs, and I may almost get one. Still waiting to hear from them. How should I go about this because the employer has no clue. Should I tell them upfront or no? How should I go about this? I'm so nervous.

    Single Audits Be Like

    Struggling to Find Associate PA Audit Job in America 2022 - Sub 3.0 GPA, CPA Candidate/23 yrs

    Posted: 12 Jan 2022 01:29 PM PST

    "Son what's your GPA, why isn't it on your resume"

    "ughh, I'm sorry. Frankly I am not able to give you any advice on that. You have a nice day." [click]

    Life feels incredibly hard. What was supposed to be an 20 minute phone screen ended in just 8 minutes. Regional mid-sized PA firm.

    Background: I graduated from University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign in December of 2021 with cumulative 2.75 GPA. Had to fight thru 500 applicants in the intercollegiate transfer to Gies CoB with a GPA of 3.85. My love of my life who studies at University of Minnesota got into an accident on the way back from seeing me. It was on me; I took over responsibilities caring her, helped at her father's restaurant, drove Uber 2 A.M, scrubbed tables at Ikenberry Dinning hall to make ends meet for the next three years while juggling Intermediate Accounting off campus.

    After graduation, I was 3 credit hours short of accounting hours to sit for the CPA (168 Credits Hours Cumulative). Took the final course where I got QuickBooks online certification at a community college.

    For the past month, I applied to CapinCrouse - Staff Entry Audit, Warady and Davis, Grant Thorton, Crowe, PorteBrown, CohnReznick, Marcum, BKD, RSM, BDO - Associate Audit - Location: Alaska

    Larger LLPs will have that little box of whether you are above 3.0 or below to check. Even smaller LLPs could hire me for tax work but they wouldn't be able to sign off my CPA hours. Did unpaid internship at local Tax firm in Champaign learning Drake. Zero chance of landing an entry level, associate Audit internship/part time/fulltime.

    I have read all of posts regarding sub 3.0 gpas on here. I never had time to network when almost all of my time was either 7 hours away in Minnesota, or working night jobs to make ends meet. I don't have the means to spend more money on a Masters program when I am also paying my mom's medical bill.

    Sometimes I don't how to react to the daily posts regarding the work conditions at a Big Four on here. Would you like to switch roles and let me try your work for a month, a week, or simply a few days?

    As of now, sitting at the gas station, I just want a single opportunity at Public Accounting. One. Give me a chance with my foot at least halfway inside the door. You don't have to pay me. I am not asking for a single dime. I only want a career start in public accounting, in the field of Audit.

    Is big 4 worth it for one year? Asking from a resume standpoint.

    Posted: 12 Jan 2022 12:28 PM PST

    Accounting student here. High in my class (3.84 GPA) and I am wondering if working for a big 4 for a year worth it. My long term goal is as a controller and I definitely prefer industry from looking into it and learning about it.

    I am simply asking if on a resume big 4 for a single year right out of college looks better on a resume than an industry job for a year right out of college.

    Not asking about if it is worth it in terms of what you learn and how you grow.

    Tax preparers - how many clients/tax returns are you expected to file in one year?

    Posted: 12 Jan 2022 06:32 PM PST

    I work at a small firm in a medium city, have my CPA license and am assigned to 424 clients, and I don't know if it's even possible to offer excellent service and attention to detail with that workload. 2/3rds of these are S Corps & Partnerships with the associated individuals and remaining are C Corps and nonprofits. Curious what your numbers are.

    Accounting and depression

    Posted: 12 Jan 2022 04:04 PM PST

    I was working at a firm where i was bullied, micromanaged and insulted every day by the bosses. They kept saying i am not excited about work. "i dont ask questions" etc. i resigned after 2 months. It broke me mentally. I still havent fully recovered from it. I have a low self esteem i keep thinking about my career, my life choices, my thoughts wouldnt go away. even with new job, it still keeps bothering me. i feel like they were right, i really am not excited about my work, i mean how do people find work excited? what motivates peoplle to be excited about work? i have no passion. I spent 5 years studying and now i have to be in place i dont like. it is depressing and i have lost all interested in my life. idk what to do
