Hi all,
Do firms match offers from other Big 4s for campus hires? I’ve received a campus offer from both KPMG and EY. I’m more interested in the EY offer, but they are paying 3k less than KPMG.
Would it be a bad move to let them know about the other offer and try negotiating? I feel it wont make a difference in the long run, but at the same time I don’t want to leave any money on the table if possible.
Thanks!

The whole dealing with recruiters thing is completely maddening. But what really drives me up the wall is when I can’t get past the automated systems or AI chat bots. Job hunting has never been this frustrating before.
That's hard to get around, and it's more or less designed to be that way. Perhaps at smaller organizations you can still get to talk to someone, but most organizations of any size tend to do a lot of gatekeeping. I understand why, otherwise they'd be buried in applications, especially in this job market. But it is really frustrating.
I have been having this problem for months. My emails just seem to be ignored and so do my resumes. I am starting to get desperate these days.
