Is it possible to be a manager in 6 years? I feel that that is a little optimistic, maybe 7-8 years is a better aim.

Just wondering, why do so many accountants join auditing when it is disliked by so many, aren't there those who join tax and advisory as well? Also if auditing is seen as a good stepping stone to progress in the career, some earlier posts said that an Audit Manager will find it hard to join as a Finance Manager in commerce, so what lies in the future path of an auditor (assuming he leaves the big 4)?

audit is only a step stone for accounting graduate. i deny the person statement saying that "audit manager will find it hard to join as a Finance Manager in commerce" because no one can understand company IE and BS better then an auditor. And after being many years as auditor, u can easily jump ship to another department i.e financial advisory and business advisory. Reason being? they understand the company account.

Statement above was obtained during my interview with KPMG business advisory. And i am not an accounting grad
