Comparable to BDO or GT. You've heard of the big 4? These are the next 3.

Pros: sometimes higher pay, still have technical guidance from national practice, decent technology, international affiliations for cross border work.

Cons (might be pros for the right person) : smaller clients, large private/small public is the niche. Some of their offices are downright tiny.

Don't listen to anything about work life balance. It's hit or miss and depends entirely on your team, office, partner and clients. You are generally more likely to have a better situation than big 4 but that doesn't mean it will be good or even better. Just average will be slightly better.

Source: worked at GT 4 years.

Thanks, I really appreciate the thorough reply. To be honest, those cons sound like pros to me. I did two years at PwC and it really hammered my self worth.

From what I heard their paychecks still cash

Very similar at staff-senior levels. Smaller as you go up.

I worked at Deloitte prior to joining RSM. Pay is comparable to Big4 except don't expect any large bonuses (in fact, only expect small ones, lol).

I’m a senior, and my bonus was 1.5k. DG rating, HCOL

I think they’re a very solid firm. If I decided I didn’t want to do big 4 anymore they’d probably be one of my first stops

I’ve had radio silence from a small investment bank for about a week now. I’ve completed several rounds of interviews, but last Thursday the firm reposted the job I’ve been interviewing for.

She said they had a busy week last week but will make a final decision this week - is the delay and radio silence a bad sign or is this typical for experienced hiring?
