Boys should never study accounting? Is it really bad for boys to be accountants?

In universities, there are many more female students majoring in accounting than male students, while in the workplace, there are more female students and fewer male students engaged in accounting work. This is because most people think that accounting is more suitable for girls, and boys have no future in accounting. Is that really the case? Why should boys never study accounting? Is it really bad for boys to be accountants? In this issue, I will answer these two questions.

1. Boys should never study accounting?

Many people discourage boys from studying accounting, which is actually reasonable. The following are the disadvantages that I have sorted out for boys to learn accounting:

1, accounting wages are generally low, and boys are under great pressure.

Accounting is recognized as a profession with low threshold and low salary. The average accountant's salary is around 4000-5000, which is enough for unmarried men and women to support themselves. However, due to the social responsibility entrusted by life, the pressure on boys to earn money to support their families will be even greater, and the salary of around 4,000 is obviously not enough for most boys.

2. The workload will be more than that of girls.

Manual labor should be done by men, which seems to be a "hidden rule" of society. In terms of psychological endurance, boys are stronger than girls, and there are more boys and girls in accounting positions. These reasons make it easier for boys to be assigned some "chores" in the same position. Companies need cheap labor to pay, and male accountants become "firefighters", going wherever they need them. Because of this, the workload of boys doing accounting will be more, more complicated and more complicated than that of girls.

3. Boys are not careful enough

Generally speaking, boys are not as careful as most girls. Engaged in accounting work, especially in enterprises, there are many requirements for details, and it can even be said that details are the most basic requirements for positions such as finance and accounting. Girls are more careful than boys in both innate character and acquired cultivation, so most of the positions in the middle-level financial department are girls.

Second, is it really bad for boys to be accountants?

There is no "standard answer" whether a boy is good at accounting. You can see whether he is suitable for this major according to your own conditions and combining advantages and disadvantages. Disadvantages have been introduced to you above. Let me analyze the advantages of a boy studying accounting again:

1, there are more employment opportunities than girls.

It is precisely because there are fewer male accountants than female accountants that they are more resistant to stress. In the accounting profession, boys are actually more popular than girls and have more employment opportunities, just like male kindergarten teachers and nurses. Because of scarcity, it seems to violate the rules, but it makes people shine. In addition, many construction companies only recruit boys when recruiting finance, and some large enterprises and groups only name boys when recruiting.

2. There are many opportunities for promotion, and the salary increases greatly.

If you stay in a small enterprise as a grass-roots and primary accountant, there will definitely be little room for development and low wages. But generally speaking, boys are more aware of the overall situation and have stronger analytical and logical thinking abilities than girls. If they have comprehensive skills and rich experience, they can work in large and medium-sized enterprises, state-owned enterprises, groups and listed companies after graduation, and then these advantages of boys can help them get a good promotion after working for a few years. In fact, we can also find that most of the management positions in large and medium-sized enterprises, such as chief financial officers, are men.

The development route of general accounting is cashier (assistant accountant) → accounting → accounting supervisor → chief financial officer. With the promotion of the position, the salary will definitely increase gradually.
