This is my personal experience. No need to be rude or nasty. With the big 4 u work long hours but at lest I have the perks and the weight a big 4 has on ur resume. With BDO u work super long hours for nothing. Not only don’t they pay for ur Uber when u work overtime their OT meal is $10. And so ok

Consultant 1 - I can only speak from an assurance perspective, so I don’t think I can provide much insight as to what it is like on the consulting side.

Interesting I am KPMG alum. Explain why? Tax audit or everything

That's cold assurance senior 1. Switched because I moved to another region and KPMG did not have my area of expertise in the region I live. This was 15 years ago. My husband was Deloitte Consulting so we were transferred to new city.

Wait why?

Is there a difference between KPMG, BDO or RSM? Lol

OT meal where did you get 10 not in my office or region. Big Four depends on the rep of that office where you live. For example EY tax Southeast s not impressive in marketplace. You do better at another Big Four BDO or GT.

So I make around 35% below market for my titled role. My employer used “startup” as the reason when I was hired, but they’ve finally stopped using that excuse. I was fine with it, because I was promised a promotion within 12 months due to scope change. I’ve now been promoted twice, but in responsibility only. My boss said it’ll be another 18-24 months until my director promo is approved and goes into effect. More in comments
