KPMG and Deloitte more seasoned old men, EY and PwC more young braggarts. U decide.

A lot of so-called young hotshots are recruited into PwC, and they have never failed to give me and my colleagues headaches and frustrations every year during audit. Why? All because of their incapacity and lack of homework done before they come over for the audit. And most of my (freshie) friends (whom I don't regard too highly) in Big 4 are either in PwC or E&Y.

Deloitte is well-known to be the more 'conservative', more 'technical', less 'adventurous' among the Big 4 firms, and to me, that is good. We don't wanna work in a firm where fresh young 'uns run the show, do we?

OK, then I shall rephrase for the benefit of some of you, 'Young 'uns roaming around'.

As long as U meet the minimum entry requirements, i.e. a degree or a professional qualification, and U don't look like an outright dumbo, they'll take U, becos no sane man will work there for life, most are there just for the (brief) exposure.
