Is it better to stay at Corporate, or to go get divisional finance experience?

I have been with corporate (finance) for a few years - wondering if it will be better for my long-term career to move to a divisional finance role or to stay at corporate.

Is it better to stay at Corporate, or to go get divisional finance experience?
hello - always a good idea to get different views of the organization, makes you more flexible in what you can do. good luck -
Reply:This all depends on what your long term goals are. If you aspire to be the next CFO... I would be more hesitant to move to the divisional work. This will set you up for a glass ceiling situation in a lot of the american companies.





If you are an accountant and you are looking to make bold moves, Register and study for your CPA. This is a considerable achievement and everyone is looking for CPA' s to run the companies. As a professional Staffing Agent, This is my advice.
Reply:What's been the career path of those who's jobs you'd like to have someday? Have they typically had divisional operating experience? That would be a good clue as to what your company values. Speak to whomever acts as your "mentor" at the company and get his perspective also.
Reply:Where are all the major hitters? They're at corporate, right? I'd stay there.
