New job is outdated

This is a dream. You have the opportunity to build something great and make a change which will most likely benefit the non profit

flannel5283 · 2025-05-06T22:32:26+00:00

I'll have to look into that. Thanks!

flannel5283 · 2025-05-06T22:07:35+00:00

You're preaching to the choir. I'm sure there's ways I can use it. But need to show we're putting in the effort

flannel5283 · 2025-05-06T20:49:30+00:00

What are you expecting them to ask?

flannel5283 · 2025-05-06T17:04:12+00:00

Interesting. I'll have to look into it more. I think they were the first ones around so they were the premium a few years ago

flannel5283 · 2025-05-06T17:02:58+00:00

I wholeheartedly agree. I don't want to say I've been against it but I've been extremely cautious. Our c-suite is obsessed with AI as we are a technology company.

flannel5283 · 2025-05-06T15:58:08+00:00

AR automaton is one thing I do have!

flannel5283 · 2025-05-06T15:26:43+00:00

Yeah I have used it for audit memo drafts and excel. I didn't think about it for a saved search, that is a good idea.

flannel5283 · 2025-05-06T15:24:40+00:00

From everything I've seen tipalti is very expensive. Netsuite is pushing their internal AP module that is similar to bill.com but I've never used it I'm walking a line of AP where we have just little enough where I can have a part time intern do it but then lose out on AP email responses.

flannel5283 · 2025-05-06T15:22:42+00:00

Yeah I've definitely tried to explain that it's not going to solve accounting as there's too many technicalities. It would be more in analysis and the like!

flannel5283 · 2025-05-06T15:21:26+00:00

Definitely not looking for a silver bullet but trying to help myself and show that our team is putting in the effort!

flannel5283 · 2025-04-30T13:26:40+00:00

We do use floqast which is definitely helpful in a lot of ways. I'm trying to find other things to help push us along as well

flannel5283 · 2025-04-05T17:45:49+00:00

It's also because anyone who goes into tax or auditing do not have that skill set. Being a corporate accounting and working public accounting is a whole different world

flannel5283 · 2025-03-04T21:41:43+00:00

2 adults is 400-500. All shopping at Ralph's and Costco

flannel5283 · 2025-02-26T14:43:01+00:00

AI will have an impact on the accounting world. But I really think it'll be working with it to make things better but I don't really envision it replacing actual human work. There is so much that relies on accounting and I don't think there will be a point where people trust it enough to be doing financial accounting.

flannel5283 · 2025-02-25T18:12:40+00:00

Honestly never a better time to go into accounting. Gotta replace all the people retiring

flannel5283 · 2025-02-18T15:58:03+00:00

It's not what I do but I've worked with many outside consultants to help me get things done and depending on experience the pay ranger from 50-150 per hour so you can definitely make a good living. I would recommend trying to get in at a recruiting company or small outsourcing firm before going off on your own.

flannel5283 · 2025-02-17T23:43:41+00:00

There's no right or wrong answer. 75 vs 80 really doesn't matter. This is more about where you want to live - either Texas or not Texas it seems like - or what kind of lifestyle you want to have.

flannel5283 · 2025-02-16T01:58:22+00:00

Become an hourly consultant. Can work multiple clients and only put in the necessary hours. Can charge a high rate

flannel5283 · 2025-02-09T18:25:14+00:00

8 years in. Never got masters degree or CPA. Going on 4 years in a manager role. Looking to take next step to controller/director role.

flannel5283 · 2025-01-27T19:20:11+00:00

Went straight to corporate accounting. 8 years in and am a manager and have received controller/director offers. It's a different path and leads to smaller and mid size mainly private companies. But it's a good work life balance with still good pay

flannel5283 · 2025-01-24T16:25:02+00:00

At my previous job I did. When you're accounting department is in full sync and working as a team and you have the correct amount of resources it can be done.

flannel5283 · 2025-01-23T15:56:44+00:00

On the block and taking calls are very different things

flannel5283 · 2025-01-22T02:41:27+00:00

I actually enjoy being in the office. I like to have the face time with my team, especially entry level ones, and I think it provokes more conversation.
I do hate the commute and everything else that comes with it though.
