Thoughts on going from B4 to industry? Was it worth it? Do you miss B4? How is the workload in comparison to B4?

I'm an Identity and Access Management Engineer with 4.7 years of IT experience in Identity and Access Management domain. I am currently on the lookout for a new position with Visa sponsorship in UK. Looking for job in Big 4 , Goldman Sachs, JP morgan, Morgan stanley , Ocado, Wise, Sainsbury's digital , Accenture. Kindly let me know if any one can refer me. Sainsbury's Accenture Wellsfargo Wise JPMorgan Chase Morgan Stanley EY KPMG PwC Ocado

Does anyone have experience/knowledge regarding whether the different B4 deal analytics teams 1) work remote 2) still travel? Looking to potentially make a switch but have heard different things across the board, including seeing that most of the job postings for senior roles in these groups are tagged to offices and don’t say remote.

Hey guys! What is the standard CTC for a non-qualified in Big 4 currently with 5 years of experience?

What are the average age brackets at Big 4 to be a Con, Senior Con, Manager, Senior Manager, Director, Partner? Keen for people’s perspectives.

Where do you go after B4 audit if you don’t want to go to industry that has true work life balance? I’ve been busy since September straight... this won’t end for a while. I enjoy accounting and enjoy being challenged, but my mental and physical health are also falling by the wayside. I’m only in my second year, but I’ve been working in full senior capacity for a while. I like the research/memo writing side of the job the most (when I get to do it). Just tired of the hours.

Has anyone here left one B4 for another (in advisory/consulting services) for higher comp? What was your experience? Feeling like my current B4 is not paying market price but could get that starting at a new firm. Just not sure if it’s worth learning all the admin stuff that comes with starting at a new company

Given all the recent buzz about expected large raises around the big 4, I’d like to level set on the average salary for a 4th/5th year female senior manager in federal tax ( credits & methods group) in the Midwest - Chicago/Minneapolis/Detroit market.

Current expectations set at 140-160k. Reasonable?

Need advice - I've been talking to a Partner contact at a big-4 firm where I REALLY want to work. She sent my info to the managing partner in my city, but I haven't heard anything for about 3 weeks. Been playing it cool because I know these things can take time, BUT, I just got let go from my current firm. I have til 12/15 to find a new job.

Do I tell her my timeline is now a month, or is telling them I'm getting fired going to tank my chances of getting the job?

If you declined a job offer from a B4, but now want to pursue the opportunity a few months later, would the firm move forward with you? Would they make you interview again if so?

Big 4 consultant with 10 yoe, mostly in ERP/CRM implementation and program/project management, have Salesforce Admin cert but not much hands on experience due to mostly management exp, looking into Director TPM roles - should I apply?

Has anyone recently done a HR interview at UBS?
I’ve completed the first interview with the hiring manager and a colleague, and have been fortunate to get to the next stage but im unsure how to prepare.

But I don’t want to fail at the last hurdle as I really like this company and it would be a dream to work there any support or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Tax Fishes,

Anyone can refer me to Deloitte for A2 M&A Tax Role?

Many thanks in advance 👏🏻

Are there any tax professionals in the Lancaster, PA area that are looking to leave public? The recruiter for my company says there's no one out there and I get that a LCOL area in Pennsylvania won't have the applicant pool as a bigger city but I find it hard to believe there are no tax people available for the jobs we have.

In 2015 different governments in the US collected $5,175,829,952,000 to service 321,230,000 people. That’s over $16,000 per person. Anyone else find this shocking?

Recruiter is telling me that fund administrators pay more than private funds at SM/Director levels. Are people seeing this? I always thought it was the other way around

At any level above Senior, how do u manage the relationship between utilization and realization, which is an inverse relationship. Seems to be either blow the budget (and write it off), or eat a lot of time.

How long does it take for PwC to send out rejection email? I interviewed with the team like a month ago, the recruiter called me the next day and told me that congrats, everyone likes me and told that they were working on my official offer. 3 weeks later, nothing. I followed up 3 times already and got the answer that I should expect to hear by the end of the week. My last follow up email, no response lol. Should I just move on now?

Do you play phone games during busy season?
