Who cares? In the end most of B4 are dying to get to MBB. B4 is kinda the group of dorks waiting outside a fancy club …trying hard to get in. And basically they are the “gang” from it’s sunny in Philadelphia. Kpmg gets to play Dee sometimes.

No we’re not. I turned down MBB for big4 out of college buddy.

Spent 8 years at KPMG and moved to Deloitte about 3 years ago. Main reason was because consulting leadership as a whole was clueless about technology advisory (there were some small exceptions here and there). Anyhow back then there was a mass exodus from KPMG to Deloitte. It was almost as if Deloitte acquired all key talent from KPMG at all levels. Partners included.
Basically KPMG in my view is an accounting firm that stumbled onto consulting, where as Deloitte is a consulting firm that happens to do some accounting.

Ironic to say KPMG is an accounting firm when they can’t even do audit without getting fined
