Accounting > I-Banking

Audit- easier to get into, hours aren't as bad, you get the ACA, won't get fired as easily, can go into banking if you want, people aren't as stuck up, can work outside London, can work in loads of different firms as a controller, you don't even need to go uni

Big 4 audit -> financial controller -> good pay and allright hours,
Except it's boring af
Lol

I agree. If you like audit more, do that. Do what you love.

Really? Wow
But I'm not cut out for banking lol- the hours, the pressure, the job insecurity
Banking definitely has better exit opportunities I guess.

So is there any exit opportunity that audit has which banking doesn't?
Just do what interests you more. :lol:

You're right about all of those, but the 2-3 years you do it for will forever be on your CV and is sort of a badge of honour.

Well I guess auditors can become heads of internal audit departments and controllers, whilst bankers can't really.
