Once you make senior at BDO, transition to B4 as a senior and grow into a manager .
Agree 100%
It is unlikely to jump from BDO to a better title at a big 4.
Not going to be able to go from BDO to Big4 with a title bump. The revenue ladder works the other way; not always but generally speaking.
Probably as a senior 3
Title bumps are not often given unless there is background to support it. You can easily make a lateral move from BDO to big4 and depending on the group you may be ready for manager… take it one step at a time. Enjoy BDO
Tbh, in my experience, people don’t do well when they switch firms, even at a lateral level, unless they had been in that role for awhile. The best ones I’ve seen start at one level below what they were previously and then earn the role they were for the next promotion cycle. Obviously there are exceptions, but every firm has different methodology and if you want to be successful, you need the time to learn it. (This is relevant to audit, so tax may be different)
All depends on the circumstances at that time.
If you leave bdo as a senior you should apply to a senior role at a big 4. It’ll make the transition to manager smoother
