Are big 4 firms back to in-person training now? Or still all virtual?

My group did in person trainings for our new hires this year, but we do still offer virtual (especially because we have team members who opt for fully virtual as their work preference)

Specifically wondering about audit

I have only heard of audit doing in person only for new hires.

All of our experienced audit anual training is done virtually where you can sign up for 3-4 days from a list of several options over a couple months.

Since late 2021 we have been moving towards in person again. However, there is still an option for folks that want/need to be remote and dial in via teams.

I’m not sure on the coding — there’s an asterisks to the policy that says they can force you in up to 2 times a month as fully virtual. One of the examples given is training.

I had it virtual last week

EY has in person promotion training this week

Both

Awkward…

want to interview at MBB again. Last year i had started the process but had to stop the process due to severe family emergency. What followed was depression and im doing fairly better now. I am Leaving Big 4 to join a tech focused Bank. But i feel like I should reach out to recruiter and start the process again. Just not sure if it’s the right move since im joining a new company. Feel it’ll look bad trying to join MBB after starting at a new bank. What to do?

Interesting all the noise about these PPT, my take:

The pandemic took all the upside of an IB analyst life (client meetings in person, fancy trips, suit up, worshiped at networking events) and left all the juniors with the downside (long hours, monkey-like type of job, aggressive work environment).

Not that the complaints are not sort of legitimate but you may need to revise the decision-making process that led you to accept a return offer. Specially if you were looking for less hours.
