Big 4 is the same as you describe right now in lots of markets. Lots of retention issues at the senior level, so everybody pushed and managers having to step down to fill the gap.

I know I dont want to be a partner so I would only stay at Big 4 for a year but I'm worried the exit opportunities will be crap because my responsibilities have been crap. Also what would be a reasonable salary in south florida area (not miami) to switch to EY as a 2nd year senior as opposed to reasonable salary to go to industry?

If you like what you are doing (minus the working down part)I would look at a good regional firm. You will be well respected there

Big 4 is the same, it’s all the same

Currently in finance ops group at a PE shop in Canada. In late stages of interview process w GS in NYC for similar role but at the Associate level.
