How do you guys see the Big4 shaping this current year? Just got an offer to work in Investment Research outside. However, I ideally want to do strategy. But I’m scared that if I stay at the Big4, I could get laid off or my salary won’t increase (up for promotion this year).

Is this FOMO or is there real opportunity here?
