It's good to do a few years at a B4 firm and then get the fuck out. You will be working long hours and lose sleep. 27-28 is not too late.
Don't do it. I know a few people that sold their souls to join the big four.
Long hours, office politics, backstabbing, depression, drugs, racism is a just few things ive heard.
i heard that they hire juniors right out of school and that theres an age "cap" since if youre too old they think youre not cut out to make partner. is it the difficulty of the work itself or the quantity that makes it suffering?
ah, bruv, it's totally chill bruv, trust!
you work 6 days a week, 12 hour days between november and march (or whenever the financial year ends in your respective shithole)
but bruv, shit's so cash, you make serious money when you become a team lead 5 years in.
and the ocean pearls really dig a glorified accountant mate
Just imagine having to explain the reason you need financial records to an incompetent client that is angry 24/7. That’s what it’s like. Basically you’re the guy everyone hates because you find clerical mistakes that can cause millions in exceptions/fines/penalties.
Work is fine, but it's the consistency that's the most annoying thing. Depending on your reviewer you are preparing workpapers differently almost all the time. I'm not big 4, but I'm top 20. Most of these companies are hire fresh out of school people and grind you because you're 23-25 and have zero responsibilities. When you calculate your salary vs. the standard 2048 work year, you are actually making less money. If you want job security (for now before the robots take over. Not even joking. Look it up) than it's good for having solid income. Just know you will hate yourself having to travel so freaking much.
what about tax, is it as bad? damn im scared now, maybe i should just go into private accounting
Tax is 20x worse. Longer hours and tax season is the occupational equivalent of AIDS
