I think Big4 is very secure!! I'm not sure if there are hiring freezes but people usually stay for more than 3+ years.

If you're smart its very secure, they're so large you'll almost always have a place to fit in.

Agree with A2, I think there is more security with the larger companies, good luck with your search!

Definitely a secure position, you are in accounting at end of the day, you will always be needed recession or not. Especially at Big 4

If you get hired, it is a great role to have.

I’ve been at a job for a few months and hate it - partners set unrealistic deadlines, micromanage, and create work that truly is not necessary/push urgency when there is no real urgency. I had other offers prior to accepting this job that may still be options, and going back to my old job (for a pay cut) might also be an option. I can’t tell if this is just burnout, growing pains, or just an untenable work environment. Would you ride it out for a year at new job or pursue other options? HELP!
