@EY1 - Considering move to EY office but not in city that I am targeting. Appreciate the feedback from everyone! Definitely concerned about working same hours in regional firm and dealing with less complex issues at mid tier company’s. Preference is to stay with EY but need to get buy off from significant other.

Do I stick it out with the Big 4 - moving into Experienced Associate role with PWC. I’m concerned with the limiting future options by jumping out of big 4 so quickly. How much differently are managers viewed at big 4 vs large regional?

Why couldn’t you move internally with EY

B/c PNW EY sux. Gotta ask whether you ever want to work on public clients or not.

Don't leave for larger regional firm. You will still put in similar hours but not have as many exit opportunities.

In the PNW, I think the exit opportunities will be pretty similar for larger regional firm and big 4. You do you

KPMG 1 - 🤔what about Amazon, Costco, Microsoft, Alaska Air, Nike, Nordstrom, Expedia, among others....are these all Immaterial no-name public companies? All served by EY in some capacity.

I would avoid Portland if I were you. Outside of a few large public companies, it’s a market better served by regional firms
