Both might have similar WLB (12-9pm).

Does anyone have a similar experience? I interviewed with recruiters from two of "Big 4".

Who was around in 2008/2009 at big 4? Specifically in advisory? How were those practices affected during the layoffs? Any insight to ease some of the worry/unknown would be greatly appreciated.
