Mark my words: Elon will push Twitter employees back to office. News outlets will report it. Many will follow including big 4.

Right? Stephen King told him to go eff himself and he went from $20 to $8. Such bigly negotiation skills & buy in from people. Also, anyone can now have a blue check mark for the low price of $8 a month. It *was* special and exclusive & now it’s like Netflix’s ad tier.

Are you suggesting Elon is a workplace trendsetter for big 4?

We can barely keep people around until senior in audit. Why would would we make the job less attractive?

Elon is a clown and one tech Company doesn’t have a lot to do with Big 4

Why would Big 4 follow? The overwhelming majority of consulting projects aren’t staffed regionally. You think our firms are going to 180 and start re-leasing floor space to fill them with people whose project teams are in 5 different cities?

In general consulting firms as a whole are going to be in trouble convincing younger generations that the career is worth it. To mandate office attendance would be a huge own goal and not in our interest whatsoever

Why would they follow now when he's already doing that at his other companies. Plus some of the big4 were remote before the pandemic. Doesn't make a whole lotta sense

Yea Twitter isn’t the only company he’s the CEO of. This was a dumb take.

"many will follow"

Have you not been paying attention this past year...lol? A lot of companies (including bigger ones) have been pushing RTO by either doing hybrid or transitioning full-time back into the office. New offers at certain companies are now focused on being hybrid and not remote. And as others have mentioned, Elon pushed for full-time RTO for Tesla many months ago.

Unless we get stuck in another pandemic, the majority of the companies will be pushing or even requiring RTO in 2023/2024.

There are enough public accounting firms that will offer remote work that will take employees that want remote. In addition, you can start your own business and me remote with an accounting background, so I’m not too worried.

Ok KPMG

Only big 4 this would affect is the Twitter Engagement team

This post reminds me of the weird nerds taking a bullet for Elon meme

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!
