    Without naming the firm, I’m a refugee from public accounting.

    Back when I was a staff accountant, and we were all making roughly $60k a year, they brought us all into a meeting in the middle of busy season to discuss work/life balance and mental health.

    The solution they offered?

    Simply hire a full-time live in housekeeper who does laundry and cooks!

    That was it. That was the meeting.
