Wonder you all ever join the life in Big4? People always think Big4 is a best place to work and desperate to join them.

What is the purpose of getting high paid but no life to enjoy?

Sigh... Glass always look greener on the other side.

Your words will reflect as if you are an uncle with 3 children liao.. if you are still young please try your best in big 4.

We know you are young, naive and embrace and desperate to join Big4. But only 1 out of 10 of my friend still stay with Big4. Most leave within 1-2 years, only few stay till 3 yrs. Although their salary jump very fast, but their job is just compliance to tax and statutory report. Some even know nothing about business operation.

AUDIT = All You Do Is Tick
Audit Manager/Senior will always tell you just follow last year file.

Btw mind to share your new job detail? Hope you really get a high paid job with less hours as your dream.

Again I just in late 20s  cool2.gif

Thanks for your response. I think auditor needs to understand the busness operations too and preliminary analytical. You will get the exposure of diff businesses.

I need your opinion why people want to become audit partner? What's the motivation?

Those who become audit partners most with older generation thought. To open own audit firm and become boss with their profession. Same to Civil Engineer Consulting Firm.

In Uni/College life, we only know joining Big4 is the most success career path. It may be yes, but only you can survive the working life. Sadly some even compromise their health. Some manager even have some mental problem due to heavy stress (especially some single ladies manager)

Honestly, don't you see colleague surround you majority are ladies? And most are workaholic and rarely have social life. Indirectly most are boring, narrow minded and didn't see the bigger picture. (No offense, some still have good life and bird eyes view)

Anyway is your choice for your life, and do what you think best.

You said audit is all u do is tick.so tick is easy job but u said many got heavy stress in audit.

To open your own audit firm i think u can do it after u got cpa and got connection. Why must become audit partner in big 4? Not only about money right? Yes, they are workaholic even talk about works during lunch

In a very unique specialist energy cost consultancy line ,  working life is great coz MNC but bosses remote manage from different time zone, so gets a lot of space n time. Dunno if pay is pathetic or not but hard to compare when I am in unique line / profession

with 5k can do alot of things, if don't overspend. house 3 rooms, 1 bathroom landed house in rawang still can get 150k or sungai buloh townhouse 150k, kembangan, sepang, far abit but still can get freehold some more.  monthly payment = 1k

car if 5k, drive a honda civic 2.0 still no problem. monthly payment = 1.5k

5k - epf - socso - tax = 4.4k - 1k - 1.5k = 1.9k

still cukup makan la wei...

So cheap ah? How about houses in jalan petaling?
