I feel like I am bored to death when I do accounting. I worked in private for 1.5 yrs. I felt like I could do better, to do work that would be more high-level, complex and interesting. So I passed the CPA and went to a public accounting mid-sized firm, hoping that there I would work on VARIETY of different projects and clients. I do work on variety of different projects now, but I was bumped down one level (feels like that), maybe because I am new and they think I need to sort of go through the “accounting boot camp” 😉 So along with some interesting assignments I perform A LOT of tedious tasks, like a first-year accountant or an Intern. I like to do analytical work, but the tedious work and following absolutely stupid rules that contradict with each other is just killing me and I start to hate public accounting altogether. I either need to move to a Sr. Accountant level (but I doubt that it’s going to be much better and it’s going to take TIME), where the work should more interesting (supposedly) or just change my profession completely. Did anybody have such thoughts? Does it get any better if you work as a Senior in Private? Anybody?
