Only siaolang will stay that long in audit and looking at my friends and families who did, I can confirm this stereotype is real. That's why I laugh when I hear clueless young ginnas say oh gen z and younger partners will bring changes.

Most people avoid dating auditors/accountants.

They know male accountants are stingy boring nerds with no hobbies.

Females even worse. They know female accountants love to nitpick, micromanage and are boring, calculative and unforgiving

i think most of us would have done that if not for financial reasons. the only ones in my batch who found jobs had to take a paycut or switch to non-accounting-based jobs like sales or IT.

Thoughts on taking an MBA to pivot away from audit?

Quit, take Insead, NTU or NUS, then join management consulting.

Thoughts? Would also love to hear if people have done this successfully.
