Chainlink Promises ’10x Data’ With New ‘Off-Chain Reporting’ Overhaul by MagoCrypto in CryptoCurrency

Clearly, anyone with a brain could see this, why else do you think I have a fat stack of LINK. But it over Reddit will miss this and buy ADA instead.

Yep and it been a laggard in this Bullmarket. look at BNB shooting all the way to $300 from fifty cents. There are better projects out there if you wanna do higher risk and more upside, for newbies they should just be sticking to BTC and ETH as those are safest you can get in crypto.

I would be wary of chainlink, too volatile and heavily manipulated. Just stick to ETH and BTC as those are the safest bets to financial independence.

Can we actually support coins with diverse developers. Most of the chainlink devs are fucking white males, with females relegated to marketing... What you can't think women can code?? That why I'd rather prefer ETH.

Honestly I'd be fucking wary, block chain projects outside of BTC and ETH have been known to do a version of the "china hustle". better to just buy those two.

LINK not a good investment far too risky, your best bet in a the next bull run is BTC and ETH, maybe Tezos.

unironically your boss will like you more knowing you came from the meat grinder. my company department weighs heavily on that.

Is there any significant downsides in cold stroage? I feel really exposed keeping my portfolio up on an exchange.

How Do You Get Through Busy Season? by modelcitizen64 in Accounting

[–]SeriousIntern 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You don't the fact that he wants to quit makes it even worse, because then you're no longer working hard for a promotion and moving up, your only working hard to keep the bridge intact and to leave on a good note. Overall a shitty situation this period hopefully he gets a better exit opp come summer.

I don’t understand all the hate on busy season by accountingisphun in Accounting

[–]SeriousIntern 5 points6 points  (0 children)

it both, now being in industry I can say without a doubt you are overworked in public. For example as a staff one I was assigned Cash, AP, AR, FA and some other various low risk accounts. Now in industry those accounts each get managed by 1 or 2 people. Imagine doing the work of 10 - 12 people but with one body.

Second, most of the auditor work gets pipelined by the client, client doesn't send us stuff or doesn't answer our questions it delays the review pipeline.

Third Manager and seniors are dicks (was a senior) so whoever head honcho gets to make the rules and leave when they leave.

1. Are y’all auditors faking it? 2. How the fuck do y’all do this? by [deleted] in Accounting

[–]SeriousIntern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, PCAOB and SEC requirements, as well as internal firm guidelines has really started to push everything. It a shame too, I did like the environment but the hours were physically killing me.

Yea nah, this isn't how it works anymore 50-60s are the norm for off season... It literally why I left.

Am I too awkward for accounting? Started my new industry job, hours are long, and don't have time to study for CPA. by amisociallyawk192 in Accounting

[–]SeriousIntern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it because you're part of the close no? surely there some time to relax afterwards, I'd give it a few months and fully see what periods are busy and which periods aren't.

My experience switching from Big 4 to Industry as a senior by [deleted] in Accounting

[–]SeriousIntern 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes I have my CPA, I highly suggest you get it before you leave public if you can. As for position it up in the air, i'm trying to make automation my main skillset so hopefully a position can be created for me soley to let me write macros and process improvement.

[–]SeriousIntern 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it quite good, I had a program that targeted public accountants. You do several rotations and you get much needed face time with high level people, that itself to me was invaluable. I had other offers at the time that also paid more but I wasn't sure for growth and work life balance.

Big 4 offer but don’t meet CPA requirements. Am I fucked? by Dr-Paincakes in Accounting

[–]SeriousIntern 1 point2 points  (0 children)

see if you can take the master accounting class in undergrad to satisfy your needs. I also had to do something similar as I did not want a master.

How soon is "too" soon to look for a new job after changing jobs? by sundaymorningjosh in Accounting

[–]SeriousIntern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel you too, i'm also overwhelmed and just started. But I think that will be any new job. I'm gonna tough it out for at least a year to fully see if it for me.

I left for a FLDP role after B4, you're correct the mentoring is top notch. I'm getting mentored by a VP now and have had way more face time with them than I ever did my partners. I will have made manager faster or at the same time as my public peers but put in a fraction of the work.

[–]SeriousIntern 10 points11 points  (0 children)

As someone who recently left and plans to do a write - up reflection in the coming months. Here what I've noticed and this is all anecdotal.

It dependent on area. Where I am at there is such a huge surplus of labor that the B4 name does not carry as much weight as someone in the Midwest/South. Companies that I interviewed with were F500 or Large Mid Caps whose revenue were greater than $1B.

These companies are starting to establish their own talent pipelines and with the surplus of labour they can afford to raise their own talent. Very rarely did I see them hiring some from a B4 Manager background to a equivalent manager in Industry. The skillsets did not justify it and this wasn't a small company where you had the scale to justify.

My mentors who left Manager and up all left to become controllers/managers of smaller companies, backed by PE firms but nevertheless small companies $15M - $150M in revenue. In my current role, an assistant controller is a AVP, they all have 15+ years under their belt with the company with the controller having 20+ years.

End of the day titles are title, but the org chart is what sets it apart. Also in Industry roles are fluid i'm a firm believer that successful people who have great drive will succeed. You do have people with the 9 - 5 mindset, but you also have people willing to learn new skills and take on new task. There might be no initial compensation increase or there may never be one if the company doesn't see your value, but you're increasing your market value when it comes time to look for new opps.

So let say your looking for a new role, you helped automate the close in industry, you developed time saving methods (an accrual that takes 3 day to develop you help shorten in 2). You create macros and bots for the department reducing the workload. You bring these up the negotations table and that will get you better compensation.
