Hi everyone, I am new to the forum and would like some advice.
6 months ago I accepted a job at a mid-size CPA firm in Seattle. AT that time I also had an offer from a government auditing agency (which still lets me get my CPA) but I decided to go to the midsize firm because it is closer to my home and I don?t have to relocate.
6 months later, things are not really working out. My progress has been slower then other CPA students, partly because I am careless, and partly due to the file that I got was a lot more confusing then the prior year. My fellow coworkers have little respect for me, and I can feel the growing dissatisfaction from the partners.
I am concerned right now that I might be fired if my work quality does not improve dramatically over the new few months.
So, what should I do? I am inclined to call the government agency that offered me the job 6 months ago whether I can be in the short list again. (I notice now they have openings). If I get that job I will have a clean start. Also I would appreciate if anyone that had turned down a job offer but later got a job from the same employer to share his/her experience.
What about sticking to my current firm, is that a viable option?
