i was writing about my observations, particularly of many people in their mid-50s i have known who cannot get jobs in private industry after spending a major part of their careers there. obviously, there are many people with extremely successful careers in private industry and i was not addressing them, but i do consider them to be in the minority. also, we are all individuals, and we each decide on how we want to work and what we are comfortable with. no one, including me, has any right to criticize them or tell them they should have done it differently.

the company that already has a controller is a much safer bet for a departing cpa. the position is established, the work is integrated with the outside accounting firm that will maintain its role and there is a place in the management hierarchy. the role is clear and the cpa knows what to expect in terms of daily activity. if there are growth opportunities for the company, the controller could or would be part of them.
