BPI Credit Card Annual Fee

Hello po. Nakuha ko na yung cc ko last week pero hindi ko pa ina-activate. Tama po ba na sa first year wala pa akong babayarang annual fee?

I tried magmessage sa BPI customer service kaso wala naman akong nakukuhang sagot. Maraming salamat po sa mga sasagot!

Am I being maarte for requesting WFH during heavy rain?

Malakas yung ulan and baha na since last night kaya nag-request ako ng WFH this morning, pero disapproved kasi late notice daw. 6:30am ako nagrequest. Sinend pa ni Ma'am sa GC yung proof na tumawag siya sa akin around 5AM and 6AM para tanungin if gusto namin wfh. Tulog ako that time kaya hindi ko nasagot.

Naiinis ako kasi parang pinapakita na kasalanan ko kung bakit hindi natuloy yung WFH.

Palagi niyang sinasabi, “Buti pa mga crew, sales lady etc. pumapasok kahit bagyo. Kaya nila pumasok”

Job roles for accountants with programming skills

Hello po. I'm an accountant with 3 yrs of experience (one company palang). I also have knowledge in programming, specifically python and SQL. I have few small projects na nagawa na po.

I'm trying to transition into a higher-paying role that combines accounting and technology instead of staying in traditional accounting.

May mga accountants po ba rito na natutong mag-programming or gumamit ng SQL and Python? Anong job roles po pinasok niyo na nagagamit pareho yung accounting and technical skills?

I'd really appreciate your suggestions and insights. Thank you po!

Paano niyo minarket sarili niyo from 18k to 50k+ salary?

Hi everyone!

Curious lang ako sa journey ng mga nakaakyat from around 18k salary to 50k+. How did you market yourselves para maabot yung ganung salary?

For context, I currently have 3 years of experience as an accountant. Napromote rin ako from Junior to Senior pero yung sahod hindi pangsenior hehe.

Aside from accounting, nag-aaral din ako ng programming. May knowledge na ako sa Python and SQL, and nakagawa na rin ako ng ilang small projects.

Feeling ko kaya ko naman mag-offer ng more value, pero hindi ko alam kung paano ko ipapakita yun sa employers para ma-justify yung target salary.

Gusto ko lang malaman kung realistic ba talaga yung jump from 18k to 50k+, at ano yung ginawa niyo para mangyari yun.

Salamat sa mga magsha-share ng experience! 🙏

Accountant learning programming

Hi everyone, I'm an accountant with 3 years of experience. I've recently started learning Python, and it's currently the only programming language I know. I would say my knowledge is still at a beginner level, but I've built two small projects: a VAT Calculator and an Expense Tracker using Tkinter. I'm not trying to transition into tech. I just want to expand my skill set and learn new skills that can complement my accounting background.

I'm currently updating my resume and I'm wondering if I should include these projects even though they are simple. Would they add value and show my interest in programming, or would they make my resume look weak because they are beginner projects?

I would appreciate any advice.

accountant learning programming

Hello po. I'm an accountant with 3 years of experience (non-cpa). Recently, I started learning Python and it's currently the only programming language I know. Yung knowledge ko is beginner lang talaga since 1 hour per day lang ako nakakapag-aral dahil sa work ko. I've built two small projects: a VAT Calculator and an Expense Tracker using CTkinter.

I'm currently updating my resume and I'm wondering if I should include these projects kahit napakasimple lang nila. Would they add value and show my interest in programming, or would they make my resume look weak?

ps: I’m not trying to transition into tech po, gusto ko lang sana madagdagan yung skill set ko and learn new skills na pwede ring makatulong sa accounting career ko.

Should I include small Python projects in my resume as an accountant?

Hello po. I'm an accountant with 3 years of experience in bookkeeping, tax compliance, and financial reporting.

Magreresign na ako

Pagod na ako. Parang hindi na ako empleyado rito, para akong partner. Daming workloads sa tax, sec registration, business compliance tapos ako pa nagsusupervise. Ako tagasolve kapag may hindi masolve. Basic salary ko 16k lang. I know sa sarili kong may skills ako, kaya ko to. Wala akong back up plan pero baka tuluyan masira mental health ko if magstay pa ako.

2 months rendering period ko. May company bang nakakapag-antay ng ganon katagal?

Tips for a Beginner in Programming? Help Your Girly Out 🥹

Hi everyone! I’m currently working as an accountant, but lately gusto ko talagang mag-upskill and one of the things that caught my interest is programming/coding.

Right now, I’ve been watching Doji Creates on YouTube and focusing on learning Python. Medyo nage-gets ko naman yung basics, pero since I have zero IT background, there are times na feeling ko ang bagal kong matuto or parang ang bobo ko kapag may concept na hindi ko agad maintindihan. Nahihirapan ako sa coding but at the same time nag-eenjoy ako haha.

For those who started from scratch and eventually got into tech, do you have any tips, study habits, learning resources, or advice that helped you along the way? How long did it take bago kayo naging comfortable sa coding?

Would really appreciate any insights. Thanks!

Overworked and quietly breaking

This is my first job (2yrs in the company), so honestly I don't know what's considered normal anymore.

I handle BIR, LGU, BOC, SEC-related work, and whenever there's something new, I'm usually the one who has to study it from the beginning, research everything, figure out the process, solve problems, think about possible consequences, and then execute it. Most of the time, I don't really get guidance or feedback. If I ask questions, I often get asked back, "What do you suggest?" so I end up solving it myself anyway.

Now they're planning to make me handle clients too, but I don't really enjoy client-facing work. I prefer back-end, compliance, and problem-solving tasks.

What really affected me was that there was a time when a filing ended up with a penalty, and I was asked to pay for it, even though I was following the process that was instructed to me. Since then, I've been feeling exhausted.

Lately, I feel like I've hit a wall. I sit down to work and sometimes my brain just feels tired. I don't know if I'm burned out, if this is normal in the corporate world, or if I'm simply not cut out for this kind of work.

I'm not even earning a lot, bumabawi lang sa OT pay kaya nahihit ko yung 20k per month.

I feel like I’m going crazy, really stressed, and I keep invalidating my feelings, thinking maybe I’m just overreacting and that this is normal.

Thanks for reading. I just needed to get this off my chest. ❤️

2.6 years in compliance work, 18k salary — is it time to leave my first job?

Hi everyone, I just want to ask for honest career advice kasi feeling ko stuck na ako and I don’t know if I should stay or start looking for another job.

I’ve been working for almost 2.6 years in my first job after graduating. My role is quite broad and mostly involves:

  • Tax compliance (including financial statements)
  • SEC compliance (GIS, AFS submission, eFAST, eSECURE)
  • BIR and other government reportorial requirements
  • End-to-end company registration (from scratch)
  • BOC compliance
  • Client coordination and answering tax-related questions
  • Other general compliance and admin tasks

Basically, mix siya ng accounting, tax, and compliance work. I’ve learned a lot since this is my first job, especially sa SEC processes and government filings. Pero lately, I feel like I’m stuck in a cycle.

My current salary is 18,000 pesos (including 2 hrs OT). I only have around 2.6 years of experience, pero honestly, I feel like the workload and responsibilities I handle are quite heavy compared sa compensation.

Lately, I also feel like I’m not growing anymore. Repetitive na yung tasks and parang wala na masyadong new learning. Since first job ko ito after graduation, I’m not sure if normal lang ba to.

Also di ko alam yung exact reason, pero recently wala na akong gana. Unlike before na gustong gusto ko yung nonstop work kasi mabilis lang oras, ngayon parang drained na ako kahit same workload lang naman.

Gusto rin ng boss ko kumuha ako ng drivers license para makapagdrive ako and makipagmeeting to convince yung mga kameeting ko na maging client namin. Hindi sagot ng company yung payment ng license. Madadagdagan job responsibilities ko hehe

I’m torn between:

  • Staying because familiar na ako sa work and processes
  • Leaving because I feel underpaid and stagnant
  • Or baka mindset shift lang talaga kailangan ko?

Gusto ko lang sana ng honest advice from people who’ve been in the same situation:

  • Should I stay longer to gain more experience?
  • Or is it already time to look for better opportunities?

Thank you in advance sa mag-aadvice 🙏
