I’ve decided to make my career in the government side of consulting. Been doing it 10 years. Seems hard to find jobs where I manage people unless at a big 4. Anyone else find this true?

If you were going to be a partner in a national non-big 4 firm, which one would you pick and why?

Anyone here doing consulting in Spain? I’m interested in knowing more about the market there and potentially make a move. Manager at big 4 in Toronto, 10 yrs of experience. Do public sector work.

For anyone in EY FAAS (or B4 equivalent CMAAS,AAS), I'm curious how the work is compared to audit. I finished my first year in risk and want to move back to accounting. I know I may a year/ of audit.

About to start negotiating for salary at one of the big 4, I feel so bad about it but I was told not to sell myself short. Any advise?

Any current opportunities for SAP functional consulting work, big 4 preferred but would consider others. 3 years of deployment/support functional experience in R3 ECC 6 with PP/ME/QM. 10 years exp as end user previous to that. I do have my bachelors in Information Systems. Shopping around for advancement opportunities in a down economy 🤣🤣

How important is it to get your CPA in the long run/ outside of big 4? Would CFE be beneficial? I’m a forensics staff.

Hey Fishes!
What is sap scene in London and Manchester regions, will be moving there with my wife , is it going to easy finding a job in any of the big 4? Seven yoe.

Big 4 beard policy?

Just read something in another bowl about older industry hires in consulting and how they may be a misfit for the team. I’m now wondering if I’m too old for this gig. I’m 40 and just started as an SM at a big 4. Mistake? Should I return to the industry? Is ageism worse in consulting?

Any tax professionals every do contracting work with big 4? How comparable is the pay? I like the opportunity to only work part of the year and get paid on an hourly basis

Looking to switch to a Senior Tax Advisor consulting role at advisory firm (not B4) with no prior public or consulting experience. Have 8 years of Corporate Tax experience in industry (currently a Senior in healthcare company). New role will be mostly focused on provisions. Any ideas on what salary range should be expected?

So the BIG 4 U.K. equity partners shared at least £520K each in profits, with Deloitte partners at £832K each and EY at £677K each. With SM average salary at around £90K, this such a huge gap. Opinion

1st Post: How do MBB Risk & Regulation Teams compare to Big 4? It’s the only area where I’ve seen a Big4 Manager move to an MBB without a demotion (at least in Europe). Any insights are appreciated!:)

2nd year partner at a top 6 accounting firm. Have offer from big 4 for $200K more annually. Don’t really want to take it, but how can I not.? That’s approx a college education annually after tax. Should I try to negotiate or just take the money and jump ship. Feeling Seriously undervalued for what I’m bringing to the firm in terms of people building, sales, book of business. Hate to not be loyal, but $200K is $200K. Advice please

Has anyone ever been a contractor for any of the big 4? Just curious what the experience was like. I'm looking for more flexibility so was looking at this option.

Is there anyone here from Baird willing to chat on a role I’m interested in/potentially provide a referral? Currently a consultant at a big 4 firm looking to transition.

Looking into transitioning to IB with 2 years of B4 deal advisory experience and 1 year of private equity deal/ops experience bc I want to get exposure to the whole deal process rather than pre deal diligence and post deal integration. Should I apply for analyst or associate roles?
