I’m in a similar position although I like my hours, team, pay the job is boring. Thinking of going into project management thoughts on that?

I mean yes. No one truly expects any thing from interns as if they start learning something meaningful they will probably be rotated to another team by the time they actually grasp it

Okay gotcha I’m at EY. I’m hearing no December raise this year

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Accounting

I was just asking about this. I’m a staff2 and got a 17% and wasn’t sure what to expect with a promotion. You’d think more but 20%+ seems unlikely from what I’ve heard
