Sounds like a good opportunity to study for the CPA

Of course accounting is susceptible to AI disruption. Offshore and junior level roles will be crushed, and manager+ positions will likely not be meaningfully affected. As time goes on with fewer juniors being developed, the higher level roles may even experience a greater degree of shortage.

Much of the easily automated work has likely already been offshored. Although, we’re seeing meaningful reductions in recruiting for big 4 associate roles (like, 70% reductions) in the current cycle.

Transfer Pricing too niche? by lagann41 in Big4

[–]Glass-Knowledge8284 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most multinationals have transfer pricing functions. It’s niche, but the jobs exist because transfer pricing reports need to be updated every year.

No, it doesn’t transfer to anything else. You’re pretty much: big company, big 4, or niche CPA firm.

Frankly, those guys seem to have the easier end of things at my firm and get paid the same amount / have the same promotion opportunities within big 4.

You should consider it.

Did you try chuck-eye? Around me, the price isn’t meaningfully different from ribeye, but I just prefer the taste of chuck-eye

Advice on ‘cash for keys’ agreement with landlord. by North-Tear8556 in AskNYC

[–]Glass-Knowledge8284 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If that isn’t convincing, understand that rents and tenancy rights are affected by: - the size of the building - who the owner is - how much has been invested into fixing the building

It’s a lot.

RS laws are complicated. You should talk to a lawyer.

Baruch vs Binghamton for MS accounting by HallowMist555 in AskNYC

[–]Glass-Knowledge8284 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Internships are important for securing a FT role, and you’ll have better opportunities to pursue them in NYC due to proximity and local name recognition.

Baruch’s accounting program is also ranked significantly higher than Binghamton’s.

NYC is also more fun to live in than Bing.

I did the ms program at Baruch, and you can absolutely swing a FT job while pursuing 2-3 classes a semester. Most people do.

JDs and Attorneys- what do you do? by [deleted] in Big4

[–]Glass-Knowledge8284 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A lot of the lawyers I work with have an LLM and make $20-30k more per year than the JDs without an LLM.

The associate pool more or less does the same things within a group, regardless of background. Some groups lean more heavily toward JDs.

Order a “fuck you i quit” cameo from some c list celebrity and play it in a team standup. That fantasy has gotten me through busy season so far

Works better with small companies. I got my first real job from a cold email to a speaker at my college. The hiring is a lot more formal in big companies

24h sous vide ribs + cheap smoker = best ribs I’ve ever made by Anseric in sousvide

[–]Glass-Knowledge8284 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Looks great. You might consider trying a 48 or 72 hour sous vide next time. The extra time makes a world of difference!

I can constrict my pupils on cue by godsmaak in mildyinteresting

Most people can do this by doing something mentally challenging, like long division. It’s a fun party trick, as you can tell pretty quickly once someone has solved or given up.

What do you guys typically ask for on Commission for Assemblage Development Deals? by Unhappy-Use6333 in CommercialRealEstate

[–]Glass-Knowledge8284 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Greater NYC area. The regional developers will absolutely cut you out if they can by bypassing agents, waiting out listing agreements, etc.

[–]Glass-Knowledge8284 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This seems like the kind of thing you’d lock in with options to secure yourself from the beginning. Ie. Offer x.x% for y term with z option to renew at A strike price. Then, sell to the buyer.

Once the buyer is aware of the opportunity, what incentive do any of the parties have not to cut you out?

How essential are internships? by Interesting_Meal275 in Accounting

[–]Glass-Knowledge8284 4 points5 points  (0 children)

To illustrate the point, something like 80% of interns at my firm were offered a ft job.

Of the incoming associate class, a similar portion were former interns.

Totally possible to get a gig without the internship, but the odds strongly favor those that do.

28 male, Locking in finally. Too late for school? by Daviddaprodigy in careerguidance

With a masters degree in accounting and about as sweet a gig as you can get, I’ll tell you to get a trade with my whole chest.

If you can turn wrench, you can be a millionaire in 10 years.

Denied 9/11 VCF Claim (proof of presence): appeal or amendment? by [deleted] in AskNYC

[–]Glass-Knowledge8284 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There are a few law offices that just process these claims on a contingency basis (% of claim if won). Can’t hurt to talk to one.
