What forensic firms have the best pay and work life balance? Obviously there will always be deadlines but I’m just thinking over the long term. Would love to hear people’s experiences!

Post pandemic, I believe the work life balance at EY is great.

like

I believe EY has good work life balance. There will be times where it gets really busy and hard to predict, but overall the flexibility is great. All about communication and setting boundaries, which in my experience the teams I’ve worked for have been very respectful!

like

Apologies for the delayed response. Outside of busy periods usual hours are 40- 45 hours per week. We do have a lot more conflicts of independence which makes investigations limited. Type of work depends on which group you work for. I am part of the Integrity & Compliance team. Our team helps out where needed such as Anti-Bribery and Corruption, compliance, claims and disputes, insurance & federal claims services, transaction forensics, shadow investigations, e-discovery, etc.

Best pay will likely be A&M and AP. Idk about work life balance. Feel like it’s team/project dependent no matter where you go

like

Agreed, A&M pays better

Hi All, I have an urgent query regarding TCS BGC process. My issue is that I have worked in X, Y and Z companies.
In X company I worked for 26months but my pf account is there for last 13months, before that my salary was very low so sometimes I got salary in hand or in pay cheque. I do have salary account statement for most of the months except 3-4 months in between my tenure. Will I face any issue for this?
Note: I do have good relationship with X company.
Please give your valuable suggestions.
