To go on an adventure:
1. Muscate, Oman.
2. Beirut, Lebanon.
3. Amman, Jordan.

To spend the rest of my career:
1. Zurich, Switzerland.
2. Any office without clients that will make you wish you were in 1941 at Pearl Harbor instead of handling them.

Any office of your choosing or are there only certain offices?

Australia or Paris.

Singapore or Germany.

I’ve had the privilege of being based in:
London
Abu Dhabi/Dubai
Colombo, Sri Lanka
San Francisco
LA
Plus temporary working in a bunch of others globally.

For a 3-6 month stint I’d go pretty much anywhere. For anything longer, that’s a bit more complicated.

They’re close enough to not even bother making a distinction in terms of clients/markets etc. But Dubai is probably where you want to be in terms of livability - nightlife, restaurants, schools etc. Abu Dhabi has that albeit on a smaller/less-crazy scale. Can have a perfectly good QoL in either, and if you don’t line one you can move to the other.

About a 90 min drive between the two, similar to San Francisco-San Jose.

Brunei - very comfortable life

I know I am underpaid, but my leaders are forcing me to work on multiple projects, for which I am getting anxiety even before working or denying.
What is the solution? Provided I don't want to switch & increase salary just to provide more tax to govt or the work may increase more too.
I need 100% job stability, which only PwC can provide.
Genuine advice needed!!

Whoever said employers don’t care about grades and transcripts after your first job was a liar. Every lateral position that I’ve applied to as a 3rd year has requested transcripts.
