Financial Planing & Analysis vs. Corporate Development
From what I understand, corporate development is more focused on m&a while fp&a deals more with internal stuff. Could someone elaborate on their differences? And how much is fp&a like your run-of-the-mill accounting job (i.e. how does it compare to working at a big4)?
thanks.
I think you need an MFE for financial planing...
just sayin
oh, i guess that's something to consider down the line. but i'm looking at these roles as a potential intern.
MFE for FP&A? Assume you're being sarcastic...?
No he just doesn't know WTF he's talking about.
This is a joke right?
FP&A is basically internal reporting/accounting. DEFINITELY no MFE needed.
Corporate development varies quite a bit by company, but seems to usually be M&A or strategy related.
def agree no MFE needed in an FP&A .
As an intern go Corp Dev

thanks for all the input. the position i am considering has the following responsibilities listed:
i'm left wondering how this would differ from an accounting role. part of my attraction to this role is that it's in a high-tech company, but i don't want to be typecast so early in my career as an accountant.
