Has anyone moved from US to Canada, and open to share your experiences, pros, and cons? I am a senior in consulting and have an interview for a position in EY Canada coming up. Not a citizen or PR in both countries.

Is this a permanent transfer or you plan to come back to the US?

Permanent transfer

You mostly won’t like it from the beginning. Canada is a solid 5-10 years behind of the US; however, it has a much better work life balance so likely starting in the second year, you’d get a hang of if and it will grow on you.

Behind in what 5-10 years?

Would you be eligible for Pr in Canada?

I don’t know yet
