Guess I'll just suck it up or find a better job.
The tax OP here

Don’t respect me. I feel so foolish each time I think abt how dumb I was (I literally broke down once in office toilet, thinking I’m not as smart and hardworking as my batch mates)

If u wang to survive the 3 years before ur jump- respect work and life boundaries . Don’t care what the snr mgr say to you. Set a reasonable cut off during peak (let’s say 9pm on weekdays) , any requests beyond that is your boss’s problem. They can do whatever they want in round tables and it won’t change anything

9am to 9pm Mon-Fri is a godsend in audit. If it's non-peak, you shouldn't need to work on weekends. The key is to get good clients - in my case, large enough to stretch for long periods and have good system/no issues but not large enough for stakes/pressure to be too high and deadlines too stiff. Normally I just have an enjoyable dinner and exercise so that it doesn't feel mundane to work till late.

Why did you accept audit in the first place though? Can't find any other job?
9am to 9pm is really DAMN GOOD LIFE for busy season.

Past midnight is a norm during my associate days.

Typically we cut off 3am (except for Friday)

Coming back office on weekends and public holidays was normal too...

Whereas my generation too passive, no matter how bad it gets, we just suck it up and swallow, which seems to make them think its ok to continue.
yup, this generation really doing a good one to the partners. when i was still inside we all just thought this is what we signed up for and this is just the rite of passage everyone has to go through as an accountant. honestly everyone wore it like a badge of honor.

now i look back, actually all we were are underpaid clowns

Partner wants 40% profit margin for firm
Tight deadlines
Less resources e.g. manpower
Low budget cost as partners want high profits margin
Low budget time as partners want high profits margin
End up associate have to use their personal and private time to help partners hit profit margin
