Law firms are finally starting to recover from the recession, but they aren'

Even as profits return, cautious partners with one eye on damaged balance
sheets and the other on stingy clients plan to hang onto the lean

美国会计硕士,有1年多公司会计经验,以前在国内也有过1、2年会计经验,考过了CPA
。在找工作的过程中感觉有public accounting 经验的较受欢迎,本人也逐渐对到
accounting firm 有了热情。但因没有accounting firm 的经验觉得去有些规模的firm
有困难。
马上税季开始,有个很小的CPA firm 的part time 的机会:tax 和bookkeeping,
Owner CPA 愿意教东西。但几个月后这个位置要看情况而定,另外因家庭原因也可能会
搬到外州。想请教各位会计前辈:
几个月小CPA firm 的tax & bookkeeping (closing, adjusting entries etc. ) 的
经验对找稍大些 accounting firm 有没有帮助?
因之前有过一个temporary 的job, 连续有这样temporary 的工作对找正式工作, 尤其
accounting firm 是否不利?
我的职业设想是否现实:去 accounting firm 锤炼一下,可以有机会学到更多东西,

借用LD的账号,想问问版上的同学,像我这种情况还要不要坚持去public accounting
firm,知道版上的大部分同学都是从firm做起来的,想听听大家的意见。
会计小硕,几年前毕业时正赶上经济危机,不好找工作,当时没找到accounting firm
的工作,就到了industry里做会计和税,因为LD一直要换工作,就想着等他换好了我再
说,结果一做就做了三年。现在到了新城市,CPA也考了一半了,想着要拿证,而且工
作经验也很重要,特别想去public firm做几年。但是找了大半年的工作了,竟然没有
local public accounting firm要我,猎头联系也只说可以把我推荐给industry而连
public firm一个也不给投。我不知道我还要不要坚持投下去,有点沮丧了,想到自己
也是科班出身,原来做的行业在我这边没有或者说很少,我不介意从最低的level做起

你还是不要把自己框进去, 我的情况和你差不多,一直想进public accounting firm,
投了好久都没人要,firm一般entry 要一点工作经验没有的graduate 或者是有相关税
和审计的工作经验,从industry 到firm 比较难,但也不是不可能。如果你不介意薪水
的话,有小的Local firm在税季招做税的,你可以试下,还是有很大机会去上firm的。
我之前也很想去firm,硬是没去上,CPA 考完后,找到一个很好的company, 工资待遇也
不错,离家又近,公司规模也很好。即便没有firm 的工作经验也会有很好的工作机会
。我当时觉得如果不进public accounting firm 以后就没啥发展了,其实这样想是不
正确的,而且自己天天会很不开心。 我觉得你不要局限于firm,要多项选择,有很多大
公司并不是让你天天只做AR 或 AP, 还是能学到很多东西。

最近比较郁闷,目前在CPA firm 做第3年senior了,可是升职好像还没什么希望,我有
一个孩子,觉得CPA firm真的是很辛苦的工作,经济不好,公司也很艰难.但我喜欢tax
,喜欢做return, 很有成就感。看了很多前辈的贴,说转industry是大部分人的选择,
想想也是,partners一个公司只能那么几个,CPA firm 本来就是一个金字塔的结构,
而且对我们来讲,语言文化差异会是一个很大的障碍.
我不知道做到什么时候转industry是比较合适的时候,是越迟转越好吗?我也担心转了
industry后,知识水平就没有在CPA firm更新提高那么快了,因为CPA firm是接触各种
各样的case,更不容易被淘汰.你们有这些考虑吗?
另一方面,不知道CPA firm and industry 哪个工作比较稳定,在经济不好的时候容易
度过.我的想法是,在CPA firm,你是赚钱的主力,在industry like IT,你只是个公
司admin部门的一块.CPA firm似乎稳定些,但真的也说不定,裁员一来也挡不住。
我没有什么经验,也许这些想法幼稚了些,希望大家讨

我想楼主第一要把自己想model的问题想清楚。
(1) 比如你这个panel是什么?应该是firms吧。
(2)比如你想compare mean response over time by firms是你关心的问题
(3)你的ID 应该是单个的subject and clustered by firms
proc mixed

repeated /type = ar(1) subject = id(firms);

谢谢大家的回复和讨论。
CPA license 有些州只要有CPA(甚至不是CPA也可)sign off experience 就可以了,
我所在的州就是。但觉得如果没有过public accounting 的经验,这个license 可能作
用不大。
2年前毕业时firm都在裁人,那时motivation 也不够,觉得进公司也可以。后来公司不
景气,再找工作,发现很多都倾向有public accounting 的经验,而且只在corporate
accounting,感觉上升较慢。这才决意去考CPA,但问题是:没有public accounting
的经验,通过exprienced hire 进firm, 很难。
我倒是不介意以entry level进firm,但有点规模的firm 不要啊。上面有同学说的对,
如能去有审计业务的local firm 比较好,我这个firm 是太小了点。
有同学知道没有public accounting 经验怎样进稍有点规模,有审计业务的local firm
吗?有positive 的经验分享一下吗?

多谢mm的回复,其实我也明白有好的大公司做会计也是不错的,可是我现在没有遇到这
样的公司吧。我原来就是做公司税的,个人税在读书的时候每年都去做志愿者报了不少
人的税,现在拿这些去投小firm在税季招人的时候,小firm都要senior level的,就是
一个人可以独挡一面的,我原来也以为我这样的或许小firm税季能招个PT的,可惜也没
人要。和猎头聊了好多,他们一致认为这些小firm也要从小firm来的,我以前是大公司
,没有小firm的经验。因为我这是小地方,没有太大的公司,最近投了一个AR,AP的职
位,猎头和我聊了一下就觉得我不适合这个职位,这个就要专科学历就够了。我真是困

More big U.S. companies are reincorporating abroad despite a 2004 federal

Companies cite various reasons for moving, including expanding their

在fix rate的情况下,(就是客户付固定的费用,不按小时计),是不是attorney/

我现在正在跟一家law firm negotiation offer,希望firm给涨工资。firm提出提高

Going from front office of a lower tier firm to the front office of a top
firm is much easier than going from back office of a top firm to front

先说说我自己吧,离开四大的时候做了4个BUSY SEASON,虽然只有3年零3个月的经历。
熟悉会计版的人在我换了第四个ID之后应该知道我的很多背景,在这里就不多说了。
来到现在的FIRM,因为来的时候BUSY SEASON已经过了,就主要帮老板做MARKETING。还
有就是这里那里帮帮手。老板是美国人,超级好。当初面试的时候很大一部分冲老板来
的。最近接了一个新客户,一年之内从粉单升到主版,9月会去AMEX RING THE BELL。
从谈判,翻译,到开始准备审计全是我一个人来,很有成就感。这边几个PARTNER都和
我混熟了,也知道了我在客户面前会BS的能力,有时候我说话张扬一点也就哄哄我算了。
5月的时候,MIDTOWN开了一个中国小CAP的高峰会,很惊讶居然有那么多中国公司在这
里LIST。当然表现参差不齐。碰到一群圈里人,告诉我说我们的FIRM现在在SMALL CAP
里很出名,弄的

来自主题: Accounting版 - Big firm or small firm?
I am thinking about it for a while. But I cannot make decision...I am an
entry level graduate student and will graduate this fall.
One internship offer is from small CPA firm in local. They gave me offer on
the spot. There are only a few people there and not sure whether they will
sponsor H1B. They said they cannot guarantee about it.But I can learn a lot
from small firm.
Another is from Grant thornton. I think they may sponsor H1b. But I worry
whether the big firm is too picky? And is there som

来自主题: Accounting版 - 中小CPA Firm的Hour到底怎么样?
听人说中小CPA Firm的Hour比Big Four 好多了,淡季的时候每天7.5小时或一周工作4
天,忙季的时候周六工作6小时周一到周五有两天工作Late,但是又听说这是小Firm的
情况,中等Firm的忙季比BigFour好不了多少,不知这里有没有人在中小Firm做过的说
说,在那里办绿卡等6-7年可行吗?

来自主题: Accounting版 - 大Firm还是小Firm学的东西多?
这种问题永远都是炕。
我在小firm,做tax,做了一年多了,现在90%的work都是独立完成,也不怎么问经理问
题了。我corporation, partnership, personal的return都做过,学得倒是很广泛。
小firm的缺点:客户较小,我们公司最大的客户也就是个私人的医院,根本就没有SEC
client,所以很多东西都简单化了。所有客户都是用M-1,我从来没用过M-3。另外一点
,小firm根本就不注重training,很多东西都是靠自己摸索出来的。(不过这点的好处
是可以培养独立学习的能力)

This is my third year in a local CPA firm. I manage my time sheet. Average 5
hours for chargeable a day. During the tax season, it will become 8 or 9
chargeable hours a day.Our company's policy is min 1,500 chargeable hours
per year per employee. I would like to work for a big firm after I learn all
the things in a small firm.

去local cpa firm面试,发现几个头都是这个group的成员,主要从事的事情应该也是
这个方向的。面试我的头说,主要做一些税的东西,但是长远目的是help him to
grow his business.
我原为stay at home mom,读了一个accounting的本科,这是我的第一个面试。感觉这
个firm和大家常说的CPA FIRM不太一样。在我们这个local的这家,基本不做审计,到
是做一些finance plan.总部倒是一个full service的
请问,这样的firm值得去吗?谢谢

dodowoo2002:
I left my prior small 20+ people local firm in 2006 with less than 2 year
experience and without a cpa license. I joined a Big Four firm as a staff 2
in its corporate tax group. Since then, I have learned so much. Although i
felt bored from time to time, but I do feel lucky considering what I would
have been doing in the smaller firm for the entire waiting period for GC.
The reason for my exit from my prior firm was almost the same as yours (i.e.
, to go back to china with a bett

of course,but maybe not now given the economic situation. My firm
(one of big 4) hired several people from small firms as senior level back in
2005. and they are all referred by the same person and all from the same
small firm. But nowadays, since the firm is kind of freezing the experienced
hire, it is harder to get into. Just wait till the economy picks up.

来自主题: Accounting版 - 今天刚被FIRM掉,对前途挺困惑的
前几年才拿了个CPA,但是因为生了孩子,没有时间和精力去FIRM,也工作过几个
小公司,做的都是BOOKKEEPER的工作吧,最近找了一个工作,人家听说我是CPA,
就让我做CONTROLLER,我每天都拼命的干活,研究原来的CONTROLLER怎么做的,
但是我还是因为经验有限,不能给人家MONTH END,后来老板又找了一个CONTROLLER
这个人在所谓的大公司做了15年的ENTRY LEVEL CLERK, 后来被提拔做了3年的INTERNAL
AUDITOR,她仗着在这里行业比我懂的多啊,就很欺负我,其实她连个
ACCOUNTING DEGREE都没有,更别说CPA了,她做的一些GV也是错的,她根本不教我任何
东西,就会那么点东西,教了我她吃什么啊。
我下一步真的不知道该怎么办?我是不是还是有必要去FIRM里去锻炼锻炼啊,怎么
感觉INDUSTRY里没有什么有本事的人,如果这样从职员混着,早晚还是让人欺负。
似乎大家都觉得CPA应该去FIRM,但是我给很多FIRM发过简历,人家似乎也不愿意
要咱这半大不小的大妈啊!这年头想学点东西怎么这么难啊?
