Hi BBI!
I need some advice and I hoping some of your BBI’ers can shine some light on my situation. I currently work in tax with one of the big 4 and I HATE IT. The work is whatever, the people I work with are pretty cool but the quality of life might be making me depressed.
I want to move to private and at the same time transition out of tax. I don’t patrically like working in tax and I feel any place I go to will have a miserable busy season if I stay in tax.
With my background being all tax I am having trouble finding non tax positions (I’d be open to a tax position if it wasn’t compliance). I was wondering if anyone has been in this situation and can give some advice on a way out!
I have about 5 years experience (all in tax), masters degree in accounting and do not have my CPA.
Thanks in advance for any help!
Most Internal Audit jobs pay well and provide good work/life balance. Please feel free to pick my brain if you'd like any additional information on the career.
Lots of money and independence, lots of hard work, marketing also
It's the future of all work imo, contracts, and you can build up a really nice trustworthy portfolio of different clients as well during that time to diversify your resume in ways.
Idk though. Good luck to you on your transition and search. You are doing the right thing no matter what.

Keep your mind open. You will find something you like.
Not sure who else you are working with, but I can definitely get you in front of the right person to help you.

BigBlue... I’ll take that offer, my email is tammer510@yahoo.com
The first thing I use to tell interns when we still had them was get your CPA exams done.. in this field its the most important thing.. once you have it.. you can move around and try many things.. that would be my first advise to you..

What kind of position are you looking for? My focus in General Contracting and Mechanical Contracting. I work with a few commercial real estate companies that do their own construction.

This what my wife did , worked for KPMG now doing Internal Audit. As she has said anything is better than tax.
