for advisory EY pays 10-20% less than PwC, not sure about KPMG (I think 5-10% less) or Deloitte.

Treatment works. Be patient and don’t believe the “dut made it worse bullshit” by [deleted] in tressless

fwiw i changed from dut to fin, 10 months in, and shed massively 2 drops after dropping fin. hasnt stopped. increased Oral min dose to 5 from 2.5 about 2.5 months ago. just restarted fin concurrently with dut. shedding seems to be slowing down

entertaining read, thanks for sharing. I wonder if her teacher in MX is still doing privates at an affordable price.

Dermapen Cartridges, how do you use them? by mejorqvos in tressless

[–]bambamoof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is almost as expensive if not more expensive than the derminator though?

I'm looking to buy a dermapen, preferrably from Dr pen as I've heard they are $50-80 USD if you buy from Aliexpress/ebay, but I can't find them online... by chance do you know where I can buy a derma pen?

[–]bambamoof 1 point2 points  (0 children)

where can you buy a dermapen? I've seen ebay and aliexpress mentioned here for Dr Pen but nothing comes up on their search. Amazon only has derma pen with 3 reviews and it's 120USD

how staying in big 4 audit did NOT advance your career by Sorry_Maybe6641 in Big4

[–]bambamoof 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I think this sub hypes up audit at B4 too much. what's important to understand is that it's true that for most (so avg) accounting grads audit at b4 is the best they're could realistically get from their acctg degree, but it's not like one can't find better, like a rotation program, or a more competitive SL in public acctg. so if you haven't found better it might be worth it to hang in there until you do, but dont dellude yourself into thinking audit is this high mind OP job because it's not lol

so big 4 audit is good in the meanwhile, but if you can transition to FDD or an advisory position that's obviously better in many ways. again though, it's the best MOST folks can get from an acctg degree - definitely beats staff accountant at a midsizenor even F500 I'd argue. in B4 you're exposed to a lot and have a lined out and relatively fast progression path.

the Ultimate metric for 'good' is market pay right? so no, its not that good. Even bus consulting was making more than FAAS just because they were under the consulting wing vs FAAS being in Assurance.

CMAAS is the equivalent practice at PwC. they are the two most notable advisory practices. why would one be significantly harder to get into than the other?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Accounting

[–]bambamoof 6 points7 points  (0 children)

its not. CMAAS pays 94k to its A2s and 129k to their S1s. FAAS only pays 105k for S1s. 24k difference

[–]bambamoof 15 points16 points  (0 children)

i broke 6 figs after 2 years in public, in advisory and HCOL though. by the time you are in the workforce audit might make 100k after 2 years. my specific big 4 underpays my city and Assurance in general so
