I'm working at a big 4, and I'm on track to get promoted within the year if the stars align. Love the small team I'm working with and we've got work sold for the next 6 months.

I recently got reached out to by a recruiter working with a small boutique consulting firm and they're offering me a 30% raise and an improved work-life balance.

Given the state of the economy, would you make the switch?

EY feels kinda...cheap. Are the other B4 like this?!

Hi everyone, I’m an architectural designer (from Europe) with 1.5 yrs experience. I’m working for a practice in San Francisco, full-time from the office, getting 25 an hour. It is so expensive to live here, I am struggling to make things work. Is this a normal salary for someone of my experience or should I ask for a raise? I don’t want to be greedy but it’s so expensive out here… Thank you 🌈

Which offer should I accept? Currently staff 2 at big 4 in Tax with CPA license. I want to leave tax ASAP. Both are public companies +1B in revenue and same salary. Offer 1 - staff revenue accountant so reading contracts, speaking with the sales team and legal team, a lot of work at the end of the months to close books and reconcile transactions to make sure we are ASC 606 compliant. This track usually leads to director of revenue. Offer 2 - internal audit staff so SOX and compliance projects.

Looking to return to Big 4 as a consultant now that I have some experience; however, I’m not sure if the reason I’m not getting any interviews is because of covid or what’s on my resume/lack thereof. Has anyone gotten hired at Big 4 during this time and have any help or insight for me? Thanks!

How do you transition from big 4 consulting to big law? My clients are all funds, and I do international tax consulting. I have used my connections to refer me into probably 10 big law firms and it’s not working. One most recently came back and said they aren’t interested bc I have no law firm experience. How am I supposed to get it though? I can’t go to lower ranked firms bc my clients are all “big.” … any suggestions appreciated!

If you asked to be considered for early promotion and didn’t get it (despite being highly rated, exceeding billable goal, etc) would you look elsewhere? Is it right to be angry about it? I don’t want to spin myself up unnecessarily if it’s unjustified

Is everyone excessively leaving at the Big 4 across the board or is it just PwC? Seems like everyone is leaving or searching.

I was expecting an in-band promotion this year but I didn't get it. How can I raise this to the leaders?

I have got an offer for Manager level at a Big 4 in Consulting. People who are 3-4 years juniors at my MBA college are at Manager level and might get promoted sooner than me. Also, a couple of immediate juniors are at Senior Manager level.

PS: If you are wondering, I do not have a Big 4 or consulting experience while they have it.

Why do leaders keep comparing how “good”the new staff/seniors have it because they make more money starting out then they did and working 55 hours is better than the 70-80 hours they used to work? Instead they should compare what options they have available to them and what their goals are.

Offer from AMZN @ 160 TC, just got promo @ D to M, comp statements don't come out until first week in June. Would probably stay if comp came in equal or slightly above. What are the chances?

Was hoping AMZN would be higher but they pegged the role a lvl lower than originally discussed during the process...so here we are.

Not sure if I should play my hand and push for more to stay or if they will just say "wait 5 weeks or here is the door"
