Do all Big 4 offer unlimited data? Asking for a friend

Anyone hear work as a data scientist at KPMG Lighthouse in Canada? What kind of work do you do - is it technical or more strategy based?
I’ve received a full-time offer from them and another big-4 for a more engineering based job, and I’ve got a week to decide. KPMG decided to omit the salary (due to Covid), so if anyone has salary insights for a new hire, undergrad, in Canada, that would be appreciated as well. Thanks.

So I know layoffs suck. I’ve been laid off twice in two years (and I’m pretty good at my job!) But I want to say that each time, my next gig has netted me a 20%+ salary increase. So jokes on them!

How to set expectations for my last two weeks at big 4? I’m an associate and my senior keeps piling on more work during my last two weeks at the firm. I tried telling them that I need time to do offboarding stuff on my other clients like addressing coaching notes/uploading my documents for my teammates/other open items. But they seem to think that I’ll just work later to finish the work they give me. I don’t plan on working more than 40 hours. How can I set this expectation nicely but firmly?
