Opinions? Got a message from one of their heads-hunters asking me if I was interested in a stage with them

Most people stay until they get their CPA and then leave.

Most of the work EY / Big 4 does will be automated by crypto and machine learning within a decade anyway.

>will be automated by crypto and machine learning

Some of it will be. There's far too much judgment needed to replace most of it though. Nearly any other job is at a higher risk.

this and only this.

Don't throw your life away for a meme.

Well the whole meatbag wageslave part will - audit.

Then what will they have left? Advisory?

You think a bunch of fresh faced dipshit uni grads will be able to sustain the consultancy arm of the Big 4? They are a fucking joke.

All they are good for is signing off dodgy accounts.

Audit still requires lots of professional judgment. I work in corporate tax but we serve as audit specialists on the tax side of things. A lot of the boring shit like ticking/tying, scoping, and testing could be more efficient, but it's not going away any time soon.

*specialists on the audit side of things

>professional judgment
Worked in B4 in my country and I know for sure professional judgment is bullshit. The partner in my team cant even explain the underlying statistical reasoning of the sample size he chose and just spouting "the guidebook said so".

You're not in America. It's completely different with Sarbanes Oxley and very tight regulations. When the AICPA and PCAOB review our work, we can't just say "the guidebook said so." It's far more than analytical procedures.

Which department is the offer for?

Stay away from Audit/Tax unless you want to be unemployed after 10 years (AI).

Financial Advisory (I believe it's TAS/Transaction Services in EY) and Consulting is pretty decent but don't stay there for more than 2-3 years -> Try to get to an Associate/Manager level and then try to jump to IB/Consulting/Strategy/Corporate Development, or Business school.

C'est sympa, mieux que KPMG ou Deloitte en tout cas.

EY loves Sergey

2-3 years and out is the routine. You sort of need their name or any other Big4 on your resume if you want to get to upper management anywhere. It's great if you're young and normie

soul sucking job incoming. You will want to kys in about a week.

You have no clue how audit works, right? Just spread the word of BS. Everything will be automated. AI will ovetake the world...get the UBI ready

And now AI overtakes even the TAX accountants. Oh dear...Jow Forums is doomed with the few low IQ fags which are left

Do it faggot, what level are you entering at? I did four years, left as manager. Place was a fucking snake pit but had some good times.

Make sure you get that asshole nice and lubed up for mr shekelstein. Seriously work out what you want to get out of it before you go in there. Try to do financial services if you can. Are you doing external audit or internal audit? Technology or accountant side of things.

You fucking brainlet, if ai is able to interpret tax legislation for corporate clients and provide advice it would basic have general intelligence, moving quickly to super intelligence meaning the demon is nearly summoned and we have bigger problems than losing our jobs. Have you looked at tax law? On the audit side, everyone talks about automation but no-one has properly implemented it. Not concerned. Audit is versatile and you can jump off into lots of wage cuckery from there

>It’s expected that by 2020 accounting tasks, including audits, payroll, tax, and banking will be fully automated with the use of AI-based technologies.

same thing at any consulting firm

accounting tasks, including audits, payroll, tax, and banking... Essentially admin tasks that big four don't do or don't want. You think they process payroll? What does banking mean? M&a? Bond issuance? What does audit mean to the author? Checking how transactions are categorised against accounting standards? Assessing process maturity? Ai is doing this by 2020?

Do you know what these firms actually do? The material in that second link is absolute bullshit, if anyone manages to automate consulting services in the next 10 years it won't be the big four and it will require general intelligence AI. Again, this is summoning the demon and it will fucking kill us.
