Is lateraling over to KPMG a bad move? Sick of the PwC culture. Wondering if the grass is greener type of deal.

Not really. Big 4 is all the same, although the grass is never greener all these firms are the same with their own pros and cons. Exit opportunities may be better, but that’s subjective.

My experience has been that every partner in the big4 are like the franchisees of fast food chains.

KPMG is like A&W. Every partner does things differently, it's a little island. Sometimes you (the client) get a great product, and sometimes it's a little burned.

I'd like to think that some of the other companies are like McDonald's: consistent at every location. But the reality is that partners change firms all the time.

Let's say I can't get a product or marketing job in tech, but I could get in via sales or customer success. Does working in those roles pigeonhole you, or is it easy to switch later?
