    key points summarise:
    1. ask questions
    2. just ignore the attitude and keep your patient to find the answers
    3. improve the communication with people
    4. finding something you really like in your work then you will get the recognitions

    Man you just vocalized what I've been feeling working in public accounting the past year. Feeling like you're an idiot because why would they give you this task if you couldn't do it, feeling like you're annoying people by asking questions, etc. Makes me feel so much better knowing I'm not alone in these feelings.

    It's the PwC, top 4 accounting firm's way...they recruit far more people than they need...then put them through the meat grinder (stick junior people in front of senior people at clients, without any real guidance or hand holding...yes, they send you on long formal glossy courses which are stiff, boring, technical information overloads but which don't explain things in plain speak..and if you magically manage to work out for yourself what PwC are really looking for and your 'face fits' then you get fast tracked for promotion...and end up as the prime sausages.. whilst the others fall by the way side as meat by-products, stuck in dead end roles doing the same thing year after year until they realise this and leave of their own accord or are 'guided out of the firm''). Then they trawl the top universities again the next year, like a whale scooping up plankton, for the next horde of hapless recruits.

    One thing I learned from my internship is that you have to ask questions. It does not matter how other people think about you or how they feel. Cause I reach to the point if I do not ask, I can not get my things done. Also because of this, I get more comfortable ask stupid questions. Then at the end, those questions you asked may not seem stupid any more, cause they helped my get things done.

    In big4 everyone who is in their first to third year knows nothing and they just do what they’re told to produce half ass jobs. Ask all questions the moment you join and don’t feel bad for it because the first two years are really your only chance to ask questions without looking like a moron.

    Hi Paul, all you are saying is true because I'm facing the same issues at PwC in the U.S. PwC must find a better way to get newly hired Associates to get good Seniors to help them. Because PwC bombarding new Associates with a lot of assignments and asking them to work 10-14 hrs for 6 days, including Saturdays for that scanty annual salary is inhuman, atrocious, and insane.

    One should strike a balance. Figure out the things you can find out yourself, especially if it takes more than a yes/no question; you’ll grow this way. If you take the easy route and keep getting others to do your job, people will take note of that even if on the surface they seem very willing to help.

    Why are managers and seniors so unapproachable ? Not only are they supposed to be teaching you, but that would also save valuable time if they took just 5 minutes of their own time to guide juniors.

      We are forgetting that management in public accounting did not become managers because they have good people skills. They’re accountants who became managers. I can count on my hands the amount of managers/partners I loved working with and had the exceptional ability to both inspire/lead people and be brilliant at their job. Unfortunately it’s rare in the accounting world.

  • @JOELVAT
    @JOELVAT 3 роки тому +3

    What he said is very true. If you will join public accounting, ask around of which managers/partners are very vocal in the meetings. Make sure not to piss them off. Even though auditors are supposed to be "outspoken," "good presenters," and "comfortable in their skin," (BS) the reality is that most managers will stay quite during the talent review and you will be the prey of those talking shit of you. Make sure that you get along with those that are outspoken during these meeting and you will get to manager in no time (sometimes, some just became their pets). The opposite is true: you can kill yourself working 80 hours a week, if the manager you worked for stays silent during the talent review, your work will never be known by others and your career will be stall (until you quit).

      You'd be talking about 4-5 years in the firm at senior level usually. I note it's not easy to transfer internally.

    Hi Paul, I’m starting as an audit assistant in September and will be studying the ACA. I have no accounting or finance educational background, and was wondering if you could advise me on any textbooks or other materials that will help me get a head start before September. Thanks

    Hi there I work in pwc too. Personal experience I think as a junior team member you could be more proactive where update manager on your progress rather than trying to solve every problems yourself cause you are new, it is normal to be dunno what to do. For the senior and manager aspect they might have lots of jobs or overload with work and you just can't expect them to baby sitting new member for all the time :)

    Attending a stock count at a builder's yard as an audit junior is one thing, but finding your way around a complex financial institution just bailed out by the govt. as they often don't know the products and services they provide is quite another. Unfortunately you're not told this beforehand and the surprise that is waiting for you. You just have to paddle against the adverse current and try to get back to the shoreline as best you can...
