Reflections on engaging in audit work

Any job has advantages and disadvantages. Tell me about the feelings of audit work.

First, the drawbacks of the audit

1. Travel frequently.

There are many business trips in the audit work. Since joining the company at the end of last year, almost all of them are on business trips. They just came back from Shenzhen last Wednesday and will go to Wuhan on Sunday.

Most people who have never been on a business trip will be a little envious when they hear that they can go on a business trip, but they will not have a good impression on it after a long business trip. Wake up in a room in a strange place, a strange office environment, a strange road ... people lack a sense of belonging.

Single people have no problem traveling, but if they have a girlfriend, a family and children, they can't perform other family responsibilities if they travel frequently.

2. Mechanization of work

When I first entered the firm, I didn't know anything. The leader asked me to read the manuscript, but I couldn't see anything. Then, let go of the project directly, provide reference manuscripts, and start directly according to the topic.

The same is true of big companies. A project team has been doing several listed companies for a long time, and it is also a "brush" draft with a high degree of mechanization. This kind of work is boring.

Many people have been auditing all their lives and have not yet obtained the certificate of certified public accountant. My own idea is that they must have it and enroll it as soon as possible. To be an auditor, you should pursue becoming a real professional, not just "brushing" the manuscript. The word "brush" is used by a person who has been an intern in a firm. It's appropriate to think about it. If you have a little financial foundation, it is not difficult to copy the audit papers of previous years, especially for our small firm with a very single business, which will soon encounter a state of "brushing" papers without growth.

3. Low wages

The salary of many auditors is not high. For example, 20 16 of our colleagues didn't take the exam or didn't take the exam at all, and now they are still holding the salary of 2000 yuan/month signed at that time. For this 2000 yuan/month, the institute also has a set of salary calculation methods, which can make you owe money backwards. So you must get the note card. It is impossible to give the note taker such a low salary.

The salary in a big office can be higher, but the work intensity is also doubled. Overtime is common, and it is not cost-effective to calculate wages by the hour. Therefore, at present, more than half of the people who have obtained the conference card are not employed. As financial managers and chief financial officers in enterprises, they can take care of their families and earn a higher income.

From the perspective of accumulating wealth, there is still a big BUG in audit work. Like many jobs, pay is proportional to gain, without leverage, income is linear. If you can't become partners, it's hard to make money by doing business one by one.

Second, the benefits of auditing

1. Simple relation

People who have been in the enterprise feel this way when they go to the office. The relationship between firms is relatively simple, and colleagues are generally more cooperative. It's normal for everyone to do projects together and help each other, without too much interest disputes.

Learn more

He is also an accounting major who has left school, and his growth in the office is much faster than that in the enterprise. First, contact with a wide range of business. If it is an accountant in a big company, two people are doing accounts receivable and accounts payable, and the business scope is very narrow; Second, the environment forces progress, even if it is a "brush" draft, it must have a certain level.

Compared with enterprises, you can learn more in the firm and accumulate for several years, which can lay a good foundation for being a financial manager in a large enterprise.

stable

Auditing is a stable job, especially with an employment certificate, you can always find a good job without seeing any signs of unemployment in the short term.

Third, the advantages and disadvantages of size.

Large research institutes can pursue depth, while small research institutes can gain breadth.

The advantage of small business owners is that they can contact different businesses, which is more comprehensive, although it may be relatively simple. The just-concluded Shenzhen project is all about internal control. This kind of project is done by a special consulting department in a large research institute, and there are few opportunities for auditors to contact, but there are opportunities for auditing and consulting in a small research institute. The business of university contact is more complicated, but the scope will be narrower.

There are fewer people with special majors in primary schools, which will limit their promotion, but big schools should also prevent themselves from becoming screws, so we must remember that growth is very important in both big schools and primary schools.

Fourth, your own ideas.

Because auditing is equivalent to getting a piece-rate salary, no matter how big it is, the income will increase linearly with high probability and exponentially with low probability.

In order to get more wealth, I think the right way for me is to invest. The investment market chooses the secondary market. "Life is limited and learning is limited." Therefore, if you want to be competitive in the investment field, you must keep your own boundaries, and the boundaries must be small at the beginning.

The secondary market mainly relies on trend investment to make money. The domestic secondary market can be said to be a "short bull and long bear", which can only make more money, so there is no trend to make money in many cases. At this time, you can't expect to make much money from the market.

The current thinking is to walk on two legs: audit work and investment. Whether auditing or investing in the secondary market, you need to constantly improve your professional ability. The risk in the secondary market is still great, so as to avoid losing the hard-earned money of auditing in the secondary market, so as to gain risk income in the secondary market in the case of auditing income.
