Today is my first post. I had lunch last week with our auditors from Deloitte and Touche. When asked if they would go into a career in public accounting today, were they each 10 or 20 year younger, they both made it entirely clear that Sarbanes Oxley has made the profession so miserable, that they wouldn’t even consider doing it again. That’s pretty sad to say, and I certainly hope that one can find a career that they enjoy and will continue to enjoy over time. I think it’s safe to say that public accounting is not an enjoyable career for most.
