Hi! What specific suggestions/advice do you want? Feel free to post them here :)

I am looking for a job where I should be able to learn as a beginner and should be in a fast pace so it won’t take me long time to make a good profile of myself.

As far as company feedback, the LAST of the Big 4s I'd want to join is Amazon. It has grown too big too fast and company culture is a real struggle. Google/Alphabet is my dream company.

Is there such things as FP&A positions in Big 4? If so, are there better times to make the change than others (I.e. at senior vs manager)?

My current company and many others I know about do not offer the mobility to do so until much later, which is not what I want. Thank you.
