Hey guys,

Has anyone here gone from big 4 audit to an advisory role at companies such as Kroll, Alvarez Marsal, blue owl capital etc. (these happen to be in my area). I am curious how the work life balance compared to big 4 audit.

Curious as to which roles you're looking at from audit.

I’ve seen Kroll has valuation opportunities and A&M has cfo advisory. I’m just trying to find a company with good career growth but less hours than the 80+ per week in big 4 audit. I’m thinking regional firms may just be better
