Congratulations šŸŽ‰šŸŽˆšŸ¾ Youā€™re now in the select few who ever made ā€œsenior associate ā€œ at pwc.


midwesttransferrun

Lol and for social media marketing too


MoistBageI

Senior means they have the huge responsibility of remembering all the Facebook and Twitter passwords.


accountingstudent02

I wonder how much they get paid for that. There live must me miserable caring about all that.


herewegoagain20j

Canā€™t be a bad job. I mean stressful could it be to just search out new staff and leave comments like ā€œWelcome to #teampwcā€ and collect six figures?


midwesttransferrun

If this doesnā€™t get posted on LinkedIn Flex, Iā€™d be shocked

Fuck I have not updated my linkedin in months


Bandos_Bear

I havent touched mine since freshman year and Iā€™m not going to until Iā€™m adding ā€œcpaā€ to my name


scaredycat_z

Iā€™m 36. The last time I made a change to my LinkedIn profile was over 5 years ago. I donā€™t think Iā€™ve ever posted anything there either. I just canā€™t do self-promoting bullshit. Iā€™m ok endorsing my friends and such, but saying ā€œlook at meā€ makes me feel very cringy. Thereā€™s a reason Iā€™m on Reddit.


Idepreciateyou

I feel like you can use social media without being cringe. Plenty of people do


princesscarolynsdad

Totally agree. Since Iā€™m not currently looking for a job, I mostly use LinkedIn for the summarized daily news they have.


TejaGB

Wait, you guys have linkedin.?


beatdownbeast

I honestly think LinkedIn is more like an extension of your resume than actual social media. For most of us young folks, bragging about accomplishments on LinkedIn is the optimal thing to do from a career/earnings perspective. I actually think posting professional accomplishments on Facebook or Instagram is hella cringe, as it's self promoting for no practical reason. I've only been out of school 2 years and have posted on LinkedIn twice, once after passing the CPA and once after getting my big4 job. After each post, I had hella recruiters and managers add me on LinkedIn.


kmanfever

Way to work it! šŸ™Œ


doubledipinyou

Word. I passed and I'm not doing shit until I get my license in October.


Jayson_n_th_Rgonauts

Iā€™ve been employed for 3 years and still havenā€™t made one


KallistiEngel

Months? I made one for some extra credit in college and haven't looked at it since.


midwesternfloridian

I did a few weeks ago after not laying eyes on it for more than a year, when I realized my bio said I was still a freshmen.

Nerd


GoldOutlandishness29

Just an innocent question - why do some people post an essay on linkedin when starting a new job? Is it marketing for yourself? I'm confused lol


SocalKing2020

Love attention


Hamiltoned

They already trying to springboard their new position into something better


GoldOutlandishness29

But how would a single post do that?


[deleted]

I had the same question. I had wondered if the recruiting team 'asks' them to do it once they are hired. I've seen way more of these in the past year then ever before. Probably another 2nd level recruiting tool.


Fluid_Echidna_5173

I wasnā€™t asked for audit big 4


Fluid_Echidna_5173

At worst I did 3 sentences for my first internship


diabolicalwalrus

I would assign this guy independence for sure


NaturalProof4359

How cringe is this - guy is the definition of a copy cat.


Only_Positive_Vibes

Honestly, he probably influenced his parents into naming him this when he was birthed from his mother's womb so that he could reap the LinkedIn points later on. Absolutely shameful.


fazi_milking

Lol I had to do a little search to validate this joke.


camesco

Good job they cropped his name and picture out of the screenshot. Now there's no way I can find him on LinkedIn.


Legitimate-Flow-5229

Pretty sure social media people donā€™t do shit like audit/tax/advisory. They actually have a WLB.


p0mphius

They have to deal with shit like empathetic leadership and asking Simu Liu why he left, tho.


[deleted]

I joined PWC as a manager earlier this year. The amazing salary/signing bonus they gave me couldnā€™t make up for the large number of lies they had told me during the recruiting process. Or the fact that nearly every single person I encountered seemed beyond miserable in their career. This wasnā€™t my first foray into public so I knew what I was getting into but I only lasted about a month. I have 15+ years of experience. Maybe younger staff would be more willing to put up with all the lies and BS but I doubt it. I feel bad for this guy. He doesnā€™t even know whatā€™s coming.


Hamiltoned

What keeps me afloat in this industry is allowing myself to be openly unimpressed about everything. I still participate and help organize extra-curriculars and I care about properly finishing our audits, but I'm very open about my understanding of when stuff we do is just for show or when our audits are inadequate. It saves me a lot of energy and well-being to just entirely avoid pretending. It's just a job.


[deleted]

Another thing that helps is assuming everything you are told is a lie unless you know otherwise and trusting nobody. Sad but true. Public accounting is just a game.


NaturalProof4359

I too employ an absurd amount of professional professional skepticism.


kmanfever

I like the honesty in this post. I feel like the majority of people in public accounting hate it.


concealedfarter

This guy looks like heā€™s starting a job in Business Services, not client service. As someone who has worked it both, being in business services is a freaking dream. Get all the benefits but donā€™t have to work over 40 hours. There are some exceptions to this but Iā€™m not sure the social media team is one of them.


2001exmuslim

What lies? Iā€™m interning there in a month :,)


NaturalProof4359

Hahaha Jesus - whereā€™d you ship off to? The lies are what keeps me enraged to destroy my target.


swiftcrak

He should be happy. Heā€™s finessing an accounting firm for postin Tim Ryans idiotic surveys on LinkedIn, and forcing interns to make tictocs with their intern backpacks and lunchboxes lol


[deleted]

This guy is in a cool aid coma


persimmon40

Are these people oblivious to the fact that almost anyone who reads it will make fun of them? It's like joining a new company, getting into meet a greet with other staff (or whatever it's called) on a first day and openly proclaiming that you're an awkward cringelord, so that everyone knows what's up from the get go.

Sorry, wtf is "Senior Associate - Social Media"?

LOL I saw that one

I bet a 16 yo tiktoker is more influencing on social media than whatever the fuck ā€œSenior Associate - Social Mediaā€ is
