How to succeed in public accounting these days if not an uptight Type A workaholic? Especially at manager or above. I have a real life and interests/identity outside of my job and I don't freak out over the slightest mistakes in workpapers but those seem to be who public accounting is for - especially these days. How do I succeed without letting the job take over my life or change who I am as a person?
Up for promotion to manager in December but I don’t have any desire to be a manager nor do I want to stay senior for another busy season. Looking to exit. Do I stay for the title bump? Feel like it would still look weird on my resume to quit right after making manager but don’t want these years of hard work to go waste.
Has anyone used Claude in audit yet? Or any other AI? I work for a small company and felt we're so behind still manually cleaning up Excel files 😂 I'm considering buying Claude on my own but don't know how much it can help on my personal desktop instead of work laptop... What are some of the other AI tools that you've used and liked and why? I just learned about Autire today. It can do 401k audit in 40 hours. Next software will be doing financial audits. So what's next for us as auditors?
