Hope it was a loss for the industry. Your assumptions about me are extremely wrong.

I agree with you, but just been attacked by the auditors side, also other guy in comment saying you’re getting graduate for crazy money. It’s a joke. I can confirm. Auditor asking for a definition of the most fundamental aspect of our business at the end of audit where it was mentioned in various contexts to explain numbers is just embarrassing. The chief accountant said something along lines that it was most painful moment in his career. It means he understood jack shit from the whole process and just ticks the boxes.

Ohhhh that’s why you felt so pressed. Good for you. My experience is different - maybe we should hire you then. I considered seeking for job there, but doesn’t like the fact that me finding out the dirt won’t make me popular. After all, one side can’t exist without the other so……

What do you know about the topic? Seriously? I’ve been through audits first providing data then helping finance to answer follow up questions as I know more about operations than they do- maybe not the biggest company, but not small either.

Sorry about that. I am data fixated geek. Which part would you like me to explain? I can provide examples as much as I can disclose? Been doing regulatory and auditory reporting for few years now, and academic/fixed templates minds have 0chance to see what’s wrong with numbers based on process explanations that been provided, but will be picking up on most irrelevant nuances like I don’t know rounding numbers on excels they provided. Maybe it’s just my experience or maybe other people don’t care so much- don’t know.

Auditors are giant joke. They understand jack shit from numbers they’re looking at.
Seeing problems where there’s none, completely missing out methodology client applied that intentionally or not (I can’t believe I’m saying this, but both consultants and accountants as high up as cfo, understood shit of what data were screaming to me) was over reporting some stuff.

Something is affecting you causing an effect? Can something cause affect? Or something can be effecting? That’s the way how I would start unpicking it if someone could explain to me as well.
