How’s the culture at the Big 4 in the southwest (Arizona, New Mexico)? Thinking about accepting an offer there. I’m from Minneapolis so I don’t have a point of reference. Any advice is appreciated.

I moved out to AZ a few years ago. Phx is by far the biggest market between California and Texas so that would be the main hub. Can’t really compare to any other b4 office but there’s plenty of work, everyone gets along decently well, and a fair amount of opportunities

Phoenix job market is so hot. Lots of options if big4 doesn’t work out.

Sorry I don’t have any specific knowledge of the offices (I’m from Southern California) but I feel like I’d be more concerned about the 100 degree difference between Phoenix in the summer and Minneapolis in the winter!

I moved CT to AZ. Yes. We don’t go outside (much) in July and August. But: you don’t have to shovel/plow the heat.

Downside is you for sure take a backseat to the LA offices, just given the volume of work out there

If you go to NM would love to hear more about it.

Not to mention cost of living in Phoenix is amazing compared to most other big cities

P1 if you’re talking specifically being in like the Biltmore or PV I agree, but you can still get a lot of house in fast growing, nice, and safe areas like Chandler / Gilbert for very very cheap
