Do you have a junior role? :beard:

Or don't have enough tasks? At the firm I worked for the people of tax and accounts had similar salaries :holmes:

Well I'm 2 exams away from being qualified so I guess you could say junior. Whereas the tax department are all fully qualified and slightly older.

Plus the amounts they charge for tax work - which takes about half the time a set of accounts takes - is ridiculous. I think this is reflected in their pay packet.

2 exams away... AAT. ACA or ACCA? :ahee:

that makes sense, I was the lowest paid staff but everyone else had the same privileges and depending on longevity at the firm, the same pay packet! We had less Tax people so they too had A LOT of work :mmm:

2 away from ACCA :smile:

I'm taking the 2 in December so fingers crossed I'll be done after this year. Having said that though, the tax exam is a bitch! But the thought of having no more exams is definitely motivating me.

I did AAT a few years back.

Are you qualified?

Well congrats for all the hardwork! So I hear, one of my colleagues used to get so anxious around exams times a few years ago, and she worked in tax! Failed once and I remember she had an argument with one if the seniors at the firm because he said she should just give it up :lolwut:
