Hey guys,
First post here, and was hoping to a second opinion on a matter that I need to make a decision on.
I am an accounting student, and my dad is a CA (sole practitioner) who runs his own small firm (100-ish clients). When I am finished school/articling, I will be in a position to take over this firm, if I want to.
So that being said, I was wondering if you guys could chime in with the advantages/disadvantages of taking over this small firm, vs. taking a career as a "company man" so to speak, and what you guys think would be the best route to pursue?
Thanks very much -Cameron
