• Layoff Season May 12, 2026
  Currently at RSM in tax, feeling very nervous after the audit layoffs last week. Do we think tax is coming soon? Kind of expected to see them happen this week, but now I am not so sure. Hate the anticipation and waiting game. submitted by /u/ApprehensiveRich5915 [link] [comments]

  I was hired through Robert Half for a temp-to-hire AP Specialist role starting January 8th, with an original end date of May 22nd.

• RCReports Alternative May 12, 2026
  I finally got fed up with RCReports pricing and gave Debits a shot for my S-Corp reasonable comp studies. Game changer. Just wanted to share with others who run these reports. I’ve run a few clients through their reasonable compensation tool now and the reports are super clean and hit all the IRS-defensible points without […]

• Is 90% of this job copy/pasting and following simple instructions? May 12, 2026
  Trying to figure out if it's just me or not. I'm 2 years post-grad in industry and it seems like you don't have to think much... like at all. I prefer being intellectually stimulated - I'd like to be if I'm going to work. Most of my work has been ctrl c, ctrl v. Adjusting […]

• Advice needed — laid off after 8 months (RSM) May 12, 2026
  I recently got laid off after about 8 months in audit at RSM and it’s been tough to process. I worked my ass off during busy season and gave the job everything I had so getting laid off this early was unexpected. At this point I think I’m leaning toward transitioning into private accounting instead […]

• Anyone actually seeing AI replace AP roles yet? May 12, 2026
  I keep seeing completely opposite takes on AI in finance. It’s either “this is going to kill AP jobs” or “this finally lets teams do more interesting work.” My experience so far feels a bit in between. Some stuff definitely gets automated away, but then there’s suddenly more focus on things like dealing with exceptions […]

• Are accountants really this stupid? May 12, 2026
  I keep seeing these AI jobs where there want accountants to help train AI to do accounting. They usually pay well too. I’m just wondering are people really dumb enough to accept a job where they teach a robot to do your job? Sure the pays decent, but after a year or 2 you won’t […]

  I am beyond annoyed we are remote. Whether it is a meeting monologue over zoom (that she prepares using AI) or an email with 10+ paragraphs I can’t handle it anymore ! She is a total introvert and can’t public speak very well (don’t ask me how she landed an executive role ). What is […]
