What are the best advisory/consulting departments to apply for at Big 4? And are you hiring in this market? Did 3 years audit w/ Audit Senior exp at regional firm and 2 years fed tax at big 4, 1.5 years internal audit healthcare. My strengths are more aligned with external audit (good with clients, consulting with executives/finance/acctg). I didn’t enjoy internal audit (repetitive, doesn’t feel like I’m adding any value) and Fed tax (in front of computer all day not interacting with people)

I can speak to PwC’a accounting advisory group, called CMAAS. We work on capital market transactions like divestitures, acquisitions and capital raising. We also help with accounting advisory implementation. Think 606, 842, and other complex accounting.

Group is phenomenal and pay is really up there. Your experience is unique, so tbh you’d likely have to reset as a 1st year senior, but that pay range is $117-$129k base.

That’s a good question! Only have a friend in one of those (FAAS) and they have a great WLB. Ours is nice too though. Only ever worked 1 weekend day and it was for 2 hours. Mostly 40-45 hours week. For me at least. Know other who can end up doing some OT on an onerous project. But they usually get bigger bonuses year end to make up for utilization n
