Correct. They have a reputation to uphold and need justification for the crazy fees they charge. It sucks but JUST GET THE CPA and you will not regret it in the future. You'll likely not even use it in futures roles but it will always be there as open doors for you that otherwise would be closed. You don't even have to keep it current in the future but you can still list it on your resume as inactive

Not to harp on this too much but there are plenty of roles outside of "accounting" that value a CPA. Many senior business management or C-Suite roles want someone with financial acumen in the role to manage PNL, budgets, etc to better navigate strategic business decisions.

Mine did too but while I was there they relaxed on it a little bit. When I started you had to have passed your exams to get promoted to senior but that's no longer the case. I'd still stay until they kick you out if you don't want to get the CPA license. Maybe you can switch to advisory
