The Facts of Public Accounting at Boulay

FICTION

Accountants in private industry can earn more money.

FACT

Being a revenue producer at Boulay, as opposed to being a company expense, allows for a significant potential for growth in your compensation.
Depending on the position, Boulay not only offers a competitive base salary, but also has incentive plans and commission offerings.

FICTION

Accountants in private industry work fewer hours in a year than public accountants.

FACT

A typical industry professional’s work week averages 45-50 hours, which is comparable to the weekly hours worked at Boulay, when averaged over the course of the year.
Boulay team members, however, receive six days of personal time, in addition to their paid holidays and vacation time, that offset their working hours.

FICTION

In public accounting you never get to work with others outside your own department.

FACT

We offer you the opportunity to collaborate with experts in our numerous specialty service lines. These include transaction advisory, valuation, risk advisory, estate and trust, retirement plan administration, financial planning and more.
We strive to be a “one-stop shop” for clients, which encourages collaboration between our various departments.

FICTION

You can learn other skills in industry that you cannot learn in public accounting.

FACT

At Boulay, we encourage and financially support numerous trainings, exams, certifications, and mentorship and leadership programs for our team members. Our Learning and Development team provides in-depth onboarding and continuous training for all staff. Boulay University provides curriculum and tools to help team members map their career progression and realize their aspirations.

FICTION

Promotions are more attainable in private industry.

FACT

Boulay has a performance review process where staff meet quarterly with their Primary Advisor to engage in relevant and timely dialogue regarding their performance development. We believe ongoing feedback will better equip our team members for advancement and success.

FICTION

A career in private industry is more secure.

FACT

There will always be a need to leverage the expertise of individuals in tax, audit, and nontraditional areas of accounting. The continual need for public accounting services ensures it is a stable industry. Our diverse client base has allowed the firm to ride out economic challenges throughout various periods of uncertainty. During the recent pandemic, Boulay saw additional needs for our services and increased our revenue.

FICTION

Public accounting positions have stressful busy seasons, but industry positions do not.

FACT

A private company’s workflow is dictated by the same major tax and financial reporting deadlines associated with public accounting. In private, deadlines occur monthly, quarterly, and yearly, which creates challenges in accommodating life outside the office throughout the year. To offset Boulay’s busier times, we offer generous vacation and personal time, holidays, and in some positions, flexible hours.

FICTION

The day-to-day work in private accounting is easier.

FACT

The repetitive nature of work in private industry can make daily responsibilities appear to be easier. Our professionals have opportunities to work with a variety of clients who present unique challenges and require innovative problem-solving. At Boulay, you can focus on your specific interest and professional goals to create a career fit for your life.

FICTION
