Oddly the only reason I got into B4 was because I had a CPA. So I disagree with your position
I’ve seen quite literally the opposite.
I have seen incompetent non-CPAs with or without Big 4 experience repeatedly fail upwards to new heights. One with PMP and multiple others with CISA.
Why do you have this opinion?
I can’t dispute with your lived experience, but that doesn’t make a rule and I disagree with discouraging folks from getting a CPA..
- Recent layoffs in Big4s target staff who haven’t got CPA licence, so you wont last long in Big4 without it anyway.
- There are tons of CPAs in mid-sized firms and solo guys killing it with no Big4 background.
