Cost - Benefit Analysis.
Financial Controller:
Pros: I am able to use my skills from prior accounting positions to solve problems on the job, take on additional roles within the company, and feel confident in my ability to perform well above the company's expectations.
Cons: I have to be the bearer of bad news and give honest feedback to my bosses who sometimes aren't open to hearing it.

Accounting as a career.
Financial Controller:
If you are thinking of going into Accounting/Finance or you are a recent college grad, know that this it is a lifetime of learning & developing skills. Every single business requires some type of accounting. It is fun to learn new industries & see how the accounting/finance world changes with the needs of the business. If you are not detail-minded this is not a career for you. It can be tedious & monotonous at times, but I find the fun in just about everything, so I look for challenges. It is exciting to find something that was missing, not balanced or input incorrectly. It gives you a sense of accomplishment.

Being successful.

Be commited. Be methodical and always pay attention to the details.
