Is s4/Hana keeping you all busy or is it across the board? For us, it just seems we’re all over the place.

We have a dedicated O&G practice - hiring industry engineers with MBAs. Sold out and growing rapidly.

Agreed. We are very busy even with the client list evolving. It’s a fairly slow time right now as we transition to the new engagement year but the utilization forecast looks a good so far. Be nice if prices came back some (or a lot).

Hey Big 4 Partners, given independence constraints, I assume you buy investment properties. do you believe this to be superior to buying stocks, and what do you do to educate yourself in this process?

I am on H1B. Worked in TCS for 11 yrs (7 yrs onsite).
During great resignation I made my first switch. I was all set to join Infosys then got PwC offer letter 2 days before my LWD in TCS. Had to join Infy as H1 transfer was done.
Now leaving Infosys in 4 months and joining PwC after H1 transfer. It was a tough call but finally I decided to join Big 4.
Again already gave notice to Infosys, all set to join PwC and now Amazon is approaching me for a Oracle apps functional consultant role. Advise ?

While Indian consulting folks supporting the US folks do the bulk of the analysis, churning out the data and making the ppts, all the US folks do is attend meetings. Most of know basics of neither Alteryx, Power BI nor Tableau, while everyone in India is expected to know all the three. Most of the times we are expected to work till their afternoon (our Midnight)

(POV: MC in one of the Big 4)

PS: Also let me know if it's not the case in your BIG 4 company, I will gladly join it 😉
