getting into the big 4 is good for your resume and opens a lot of opportunities for you. However, working in smaller firms isn't a bad start.
a CMA is basically a CPA but one is for public one is for private. no difference in terms of which one is better but obviously the CPA is easier to recognize.
a big misconception about becoming a CFO is, the CFO is not the next level after being a comptroller. a comptroller manages the accounting divison while the CFO is in charge of the entire company's finances from a more strategic point of view. They are not related in terms of what type of skills you need but being a comptroller makes you a good candidate if you have other financial background for CFO.
