So I’ve heard over and over success stories about how the CPA has opened up doors to new opportunities, most of which are immediate, and I admit I’m a bit envious.
How many people feel it hasn’t reaped the immediate benefits you hoped for? My experience feels a bit unusual, halfway through the exam I was told by my employer that I would get a promotion once I got my CPA (never happened). Now I’m being told to wait a year and add responsibility without the promotion to see how I fair before they offer it. To add to me feeling down is the fact that I felt like I had more responsibility before my CPA then I do now. The controller does not have a CPA nor does anyone else in my department. In fact the only other CPA is our CFO.
I almost feel like I’m being punished for passing, like my boss is jealous and now views me as a threat. However, I have zero intention of trying to go after his job, I am interested in an assistant manager position.
Anyway it just sucks. I’ve began slowly checking out the job market around me and don’t see anything enticing. I’m on the fence whether to wait a year and see if the new promise for a promotion is true or another lie.
Does anyone else have similar experience?
