Please delete my number from your thread, I never gave you my number to publish in search of a man. Thank God for the young man that saw and sent me this link. This is really embarrassing to my personality. Kindly take down my number ❌❌❌

Strategical:
Your observations are very correct and that is why MSMEs last for few years and fizzle out very quickly here. Business decisions by entrepreneurs are mostly made without recourse to financial information and metrics generated from the operations of the entity but largely on the whims, moods, experiences of the owner(s) or experiences of others etc which in turn are based on trial and errors.

Secondly, most accountants lack the training (from school or work experience) to appreciate the importance of practical application of accounting knowledge in real life in their working places especially using Cost Accounting, Management Accounting, Financial Accounting, Tax Accounting and FIRS.

However in most cases the fault is not of the accountants but the faulty understanding of the role of accountants by business owners. This applies to the case of "DaBogu" above. Consider a scenario where a chartered accountant is engaged and s/he is the only person in the accounts department that has to analyse, classify, record and file each and every financial transactions of the entity. Also don't forget that the owner engages the same accountant to go deposit cheques or cash at the bank and many other unrelated assignments that end up taking up the time.

S/he is bogged down for the whole day trying to do the bookkeeping and figure out how to post or record some other items properly and this becomes a routine exercise repeatedly done day-in-day-out. With this scenario it becomes almost impossible for the chartered accountant to have time to think clearly about turning the financial data into useful information to aid decision making for the management like:

1. When and whether to buy new machineries or embark on capital projects
2. When and whether to recruit additional staff
3. When and whether to buy additional inventories
4. When and whether to expand operations
5. When, where and whether to source for additional funding for the business and what type of financing to explore
6. Whether to take on a new project, contract etc or not
7. What price to charge for the product or service
8. When or whether to change (increase or decrease) product or service prices and by how much
9. When, whether or where to open new branches

The above and many other business decisions require the impute of accountants before they are finalised.

Meanwhile in reality, there should have been someone else handling the bookkeeping tasks while the chartered accountant handles preparation of the periodic management reports and related analysis of the financials in a way to help management decision making exercises.

am confused

phemmyfour:
You want salary info yet company name is unknown

etrange:
OK. I appreciate the fact that you're very skeptical about sharing relevant details so I'd work with the little details I have.

Similarities:
They're both IT roles, they both in Lagos. They're both on the Mainland. They're both very good companies from the way you describe them.

Work culture:
One is multinational, one is local. The multinational wins simply became of the associated exposure and the assumption that multinational firms have healthier work culture. SOP's are more standard. Processes are clearer/well spelled out. The experience will help if you decide to move out of the country later.

Job role/org hierarchy:
One is in a tech firm while the other is the IT department of non tech firm. The tech firm wins not just because it is a tech firm, but because it fits more into your career especially if you plan to diversify your skills in future. The IT guys in non tech firms have some advantages in the sense that one person does a lot of things and thereby getting rounded knowledge. However, there's usually a limit to where they can get to in the org. hierarchy because tech is not the primary service of the firm. You hardly see an IT director in a non tech firm. Instead the IT manager would be reporting to the Finance director or something like that. Meanwhile, those IT guys in tech firms are usually specialists, but they do go deep in thier areas of specialization. Besides, they could get as high as directors for obvious reasons. The stress levels are comparable.

Pay:
You didn't say who pays more, but normally, many non tech firms would pay you more at the beginning. Thier income isn't directly tied to your activity. If the sales are good, they could pay more even if your job tasks haven't changed (this may not be the case for you seeing that your own tech firm is also huge/international). However, in the long run, working in the international tech firm would pay more. First reason is that they go higher up the ladder. Second reason is they they could easily join the non tech firms and get heavily paid as specialists (easier than joining tech from non tech on the basis of the fact that tech firm culture/methodologies take time to acquire). Third reason is that the firm is international. So even if you move abroad, it'd still be a good name on your CV and this would help your bargaining. Finally, specialists are rare and highly sought after.

Conclusion:
I think I'd go with the international tech firm. I'm not a seer, but I'm speaking with the experience of someone who's been in IT for a decade and who has worked in many organizations in multiple countries/continents.

Good luck!

I will thanks. DM sent

Sammy07:
No proper information about the companies hence I can't advice

KristaPretty:
You are calling Ojo mainland? Oh please stop being funny!

I'm curious as these companies you mentioned which you claim are located in OJO axis. You need to be sure you are not in anyway being scammed as I bet, you cannot find any company of such profile in such an area. Is it Ojo Alaba, Mile2, Sabo or Ajangbadi or Iba or where in Ojo exactly? Please stop being funny, or maybe you think you're talking to gullible people who have no idea of the geography of Ojo. I lived in Ojo axis for over 20years of my life and there's nothing you can tell me. No such companies with those profile exist in Ojo

For the career aspect, you should choose the Environmental aspect. I am an Environmental Scientist also and it's an interesting one, tho not valued here in Nigeria.

Ojo kor, British company ni

It's good to know what these companies have in common, but we need to know thier peculiarities. What position they're offering and how that position fits into the organizational hierarchy as well which one pays better all come together to help you decide which one to go for and what can be sacrificed.
