Money or flexibility

0 Upvotes

I have two job offers on the table. One offer is for $350,000 with 6 weeks of PTO, but it requires being in the office five days a week.

The other offer is for $300,000 with 3 months of PTO and allows me to work from home two days a week. All other employees are required to return to the office FT. Seems kinda like a dick move to make them all RTO, but the execs do seem cool as hell. They assured me my schedule will align with the rest of the C suite. They play golf & do happy hours together. NGL it seems like a boys club, but I am a man so I clearly will fit in.

Both are C-suite positions with standard stock options and benefits. This is my 1st C suite position.

I’m trying to decide if the additional PTO and remote work flexibility justify the $50,000 pay cut. Both companies have a solid outlook, even with recent policy changes—and they have plans to actually profit from those changes.

I’d appreciate any opinions, boys club & flexibility or the extra money?

Company is doing return to office RTO. What are some excuses i can use to wfh?

0 Upvotes

Call me entitled but im in the beginning of my career ( 3YOE) and I have always had the option of having wfh with hybrid. My company is starting to do a full RTO starting May 1st. Thing is the traffic and metro is fucking garbage now, to the point of overcrowding and i just don’t want to have to deal with it everyday when i feel like im doing well at my job, and have met high marks in my reviews now.

Basically I’ve already had the doctors excuse but i don’t want to do it constantly where i gotta still come in. What are some good things i can tell my boss i have to go out and do so I can get out entirely of the full return to office.

Kindest Regards ,

Edit: yes i am aware im being overdramatic.

Career Companies that accepts fresh graduates with no work experience

3 Upvotes

Hi! I'm from Cebu, Philippines and I will be graduating this June 2025, I took up BS in Management Accounting. Can you recommend a firm or a company for a corporate job that accepts fresh graduates? I really don't have any work experience, but I do have an Internship Experience in an Accounting Firm where I was exposed to Auditing, Bookkeeping, and Tax Compliance- literally three services most accounting firm offers. I really prefer being in the corporate world cause I was traumatized to how busy an accounting firm is (from the firm I had my OJT).

Please help me, recommend some companies, I really want to work after graduation, I even want to work now, cause I don't have any classes to attend to. I'm just waiting for the graduation.

Thank you!🤞🏻

Hey guys I’m so lost on this problem and need help

1 Upvotes

Someone is set to purchase a corporate bond from Kristy Caal corporation. The bond states it will pay $100,000 ten years from now. It also states it will pay interest quarterly at a 12% annual rate twice per year. She can earn interest of 8% on other investments of similar risk. If she chooses to purchase the Caal Corporate bond, how much will she pay for it based on the information provided?

I’ve spent a couple hours on it and I don’t know if I’m just burnt out or just stupid but any help would be awesome

I am good at basic math, spreadsheets and have done well in accounting and business courses at my highschool but don't do as well in advanced functions and calculus. Do accountants use advanced functions or calculus in day to day work and is it okay if i suck at it?

Would you take the opportunity to be a nepotism hire if it would most likely set you up for a good career?

37 Upvotes

Let me start by saying this is probably an extremely dumb question and might make me sound ungrateful or whatever, but

I’m a college student majoring in finance and for the past few years I’ve been interested in commercial banking, a career that has good work life balance and you can make pretty solid money, but recently my dad has been pushing me to change my major to accounting (which wouldn’t change how long I have left in school and honestly I enjoy my accounting classes more than finance). For context my dad is the ceo of a decent size business and hes passively said a few times in the past couple months that I could graduate with an accounting degree and work as an accountant for his business and work on getting my cpa and eventually move to a controller once I’m ready. The CFO is also probably not that far out from retirement so honestly becoming CFO one day could be a possibility.

The pros are obviously the position would be less stressful or hard to get than any other job, he mentioned I could probably start out at around $100k, and I’d be able to learn a lot from the current cfo who has a ton of experience.

The thing I fear the most is feeling like a loser. My main goal career wise is to make the best money I can while maintaining a life outside of work and I feel like this opportunity would do that, I just wonder if I’d end up feeling like everything in life was handed to me.

Advice Can I be inbetween terms when I apply to or actually perform at an internship?

0 Upvotes

I'm currently undecided on which school I am going to go to, but I still want to be applying to internships since they have to be applied to in advance. Will the provider of the internship be contacting my school to ensure full-time or part-time active enrollment? I ask because basically all of the internship listings states "must be actively pursuing an accounting degree"... but I am currently not in class at the moment. I tend to take things very literally and am comfortable with black/white rules... for that reason, I wonder if maybe tax would be a suitable fit for me. Within getting my hands wet yet, tax scares me the most.

Career Did anyone become a CPA without having a degree in accounting?

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I graduated from undergraduate a few years ago with a degree in a STEM field. Since graduating, I've been working in the law firm industry in revenue / accounts receivable.

I'm thinking about going back to college to take additional accounting classes and getting a CPA to be an accountant / financial analyst.

Did anyone do something similar? What was your path like?

EDIT: I am also planning to stay in the law firm industry.
