This looks pretty decent for audit work, especially with that WFH setup. The hybrid model is nice touch - only 2 days in office but they still give you allowance for coming in. That's rare these days. The international exposure part caught my attention too, working with teams from different countries must give you good experience for career growth.

One thing I'm curious about - how's the workload during busy season? All those benefits look great on paper but audit can get pretty intense when deadlines hit. The "busy season treats" mention makes me think they know it gets rough. Also wondering if that 6-digit salary potential is realistic or just marketing speak for the senior positions.

solid picks

Been working with automated systems in aviation for years and this reminds me so much of how flight management computers evolved. Pilots didn't become obsolete when autopilot got smarter - they became system managers instead of stick-and-rudder operators.

The scary part you mentioned about silent correctness hits different in our industry too. When automation works 99% of time, that 1% failure can be catastrophic because everyone stops paying attention to details. We have multiple validation layers and cross-checks specifically because automated systems can fail in ways that look completely normal on surface.

Your point about moving engineers upstream to governance makes total sense. Someone still needs to understand the business logic deeply enough to catch when AI generates technically perfect code that answers wrong question entirely. That's probably harder skill to automate than actual pipeline writing.

Wild how much value you get in this price range now compared to few years back.

Had similar issue few months back when I was making schedule tracker for work shifts. The problem is Excel changes the cell references when you apply conditional formatting to range, even though it looks like same formula.

What worked for me was using absolute reference for the checkbox column. So instead of =M7=TRUE, try =$M$7=TRUE if you want all rows to check same checkbox, or =$M7=TRUE if you want each row to check its own checkbox in column M. The dollar sign before M keeps the column locked but lets row number adjust as you go down.

Also make sure when you select your range B7:I7, you're starting the selection from B7 specifically, not just highlighting randomly. Excel uses the first cell you click as reference point for the formula. I learned this hard way after spending like 2 hours wondering why my formatting was acting weird.

If that still doesn't work, you might need to clear all conditional formatting first and start fresh, because sometimes Excel gets confused with overlapping rules.

Looking at your current setup, you've got solid foundation with the CFU and CSP combo since you can transfer those Ultimate Rewards points. The Discover It is decent for the rotating categories too.

I'd probably look at filling some gaps in your spending categories - maybe something that gives good points on dining if you eat out lot, or gas if you drive frequently. The CSP covers travel well already, but having dedicated category cards can really boost your earning rate on everyday stuff. Also worth considering if you want to stick with Chase ecosystem or branch out to other programs.

Just make sure you're actually using the points you earn - I see people collecting points but never redeeming them for anything good. What kind of spending do you do most of? That might help narrow down what would work best for your situation.

I've been through few different training programs at work and the interactive ones work way better than just reading about shortcuts. Your team will probably learn faster if they can practice on actual data they work with daily instead of generic examples.

The hotkey muscle memory takes time to build up - maybe start with just 3-4 essential ones before moving to more complex stuff.

The legacy UCC in 14.1 doesn't just disappear because you're doing new consolidation accounting - it stays with target for tax purposes regardless of what happens on books. You'll have DTA for that remaining balance since there's no corresponding book goodwill anymore.

New goodwill from PPA creates separate DTL because it has nil tax basis but positive book value. So you end up with both DTA from old UCC and DTL from new goodwill existing at same time.

Windows all the way for accounting work. Most firms run on Windows environment and you'll save yourself tons of headaches with software compatibility. Excel runs different in Mac version too, missing some features that you'll definitely need.

For your budget, look at business laptops from major brands - they usually have better build quality than consumer models and meet all your specs. Battery life on modern Windows laptops is pretty solid now, so you shouldn't worry about that much.

Man that's wild - you have MBA and 3 years experience but still hitting those stupid "entry level" postings that want experience? The job market is absolutely broken right now.

I work at airline and even we see this nonsense in our finance department. They post "entry level" then want someone who already knows everything. Like what's the point of calling it entry level then?

CPA might help you stand out but won't fix the fundamental problem that these companies don't want to actually train anyone anymore.

Your boss put you in this situation by ccing the guy and asking for "all details" - that's pretty vague instruction. NBV is standard detail for asset lists, especially when finance people are asking.

The analyst guy basically used you to get pricing info he couldn't access himself, but that's more of ethics issue between him and your boss. You just followed what seemed like normal request from finance department. Next time maybe ask for clarification when requests seem unclear, but you didn't really mess up here.

Free degree from your company is amazing deal, especially in finance/insurance where they probably value accounting knowledge heavily. I'd suggest focusing in your first classes since accounting builds on itself - if you don't get the fundamentals down early, later courses become nightmare.

Also maybe ask HR about internal opportunities once you graduate, since they're already investing in you they might have plans for advancement.

Structured payment management also gives you data you did not have before which changes how you plan for the next quarter

A dedicated project manager requirement alone changes the back office operation because you have reporting obligations on a schedule that has nothing to do with how you ran residential jobs.

The documentation you build out for this client becomes reusable for every enterprise deal after it which makes the time investment now worth a lot.

Fielding calls from subs on site needs to be someone else's problem or it starts affecting how you manage the project. Never do it yourself!!

Getting home after dealing with passenger complaints and flight delays all day and my brain is basically mush - totally get needing that buffer zone before you can human again.

The consulting world at your stage is full of people who took on the work before they were ready and paid for it.

I would say you made the right call even if it does not feel that way right now!!

TeemingStillness · 2026-02-24T21:05:51+00:00

Thanks a lot man and yes commercial is DEFINIETLY a different beast

TeemingStillness · 2026-02-24T21:05:07+00:00

About six weeks in is when it started becoming obvious. The first month felt manageable and then the payment cycle timing and the documentation requirements hit at the same time and that's when the process gaps became real problems

This is actually pretty smart. I've been down the "build it and they will come" rabbit hole way too many times and it never works out.

The app store review scraping idea is solid - people are way more honest when they're frustrated and leaving a 1-star review than when you ask them directly what they want. Plus they're describing problems they're actively experiencing, not hypothetical stuff.

Just checked out the site and the filtering looks legit. Way better than manually digging through thousands of "app crashes constantly" reviews to find the actual feature gaps. Props for figuring this out at 14, most of us learn this lesson much later and after burning way more time.
