Unfair feedback and plan
The whole story lasted for almost an year. As the management cannot provide me with a decent explanation, the plan is currently on hold.
I have been changing engagements frequently since I returned to business. Even if the plan has to start, I won't work with the two SMs who wrote me negative feedback.
I've written them upward feedback and came to HR. I am positive, hardworking and keen to learn. However, I do have concerns over what happened with that two SMs. It may have a negative impact on my career going forward.
I am sure their auditing skills are not strong. Evidence includes - they leave Q1-Q4 samples to test within the last month before sign-off (since it is a first-year audit, none of us knew how to tick those off at that time, it is a revenue account on PL), the engagement is 12 month long. Another SM reviewed WP carelessly and cannot explain difficult accounting treatment clearly.
In my first year returning to business, I've completed journal HRC testing, determined HRC and followed financial reporting systems of two clients. I am not sure why that is not exceeding expectation of an associate.
The only problem with me is that I didn't challenge unfair feedback calmly. I responded poorly to lies...sorry. I was not familiar with the culture here.
I cannot imagine how I can accept the plan calmly. Unless I have a fever about auditing. I am just a normal person who have a higher standard towards work. That's all. I am here to live, not to be a slave.
I feel it is a really hard fight - feel exhausted.
