You can look at some of the well-known companies' annual reports for who their auditors are (i.e. cimb is PwC's client). Many big companies use the service of big 4 auditors. Good luck

Minimum politic

I did my ACCA. Average in studies, actually.

So from what I read, EY is a peoples place but PwC is more prestigious. And PwC is better?

Haha, I would vote this as the best answer in the thread

But a lot depends on your character and what engagements were you assigned to really

No truer words than this

Most people in EY complaints about their company but refused to resign.

Most people are okay with PwC except for the hours occasionally.

Or if you get a crap manager

Why?

What do they complain about?

Why PwC?

PWC > EY

Management style EY tak boleh jalan

Are you from EY? Why is it so?

I think internship is the least stressful position of all. So can't fully take their own into consideration when joining one of this two. I heard EY has some major clients too. But is it better than PwC. Also, how is the salary increment for both firms?

they are very professional. i am an ex-big 4 myself and for me, PWC is the best compared to others.

Thank you everyone for your opinion. I've decided, and it's Pwc I choose! 😊

I thought PWC is no 1 in msia

See which dept or boss you are under. To the industry, it hardly makes a difference which Big4 firm you are if you are joining accounting later. If you are leaving accounting, they cannot even differentiate.

Only Big4 staffs cared about which firm they are to compare client size, bonus, performance, boss, ...et all.

If you bother to compile market information (which I don't ), you will find all the largest market cap was/is audited by PwCs. EY got the largest market size by quantity of Plcs. KPMG sapu all the remaining. BDO is the another
"4" in MYS.

Increment largely the same.

If you dare to go the power staff route (extra RMxxx per month for you )

PwC and EY separate the banking division while its merged in KPMG.

Just facebook ey and pwc staff and you judge whether you like their lifestyle.

I cant comment about EY but for PwC i have alot of friends in there and their career outlook has been fantastic.

PwC offers relocation advancement, ie if you work closely with foreign teams and they like you, you might get the chance to move to another country.

I have friends who move from Pwc Malaysia to PwC Singapore to PwC USA to PwC Australia.

Although it is a know fact that all Big4 in different countries is own and managed independently, but their flexibility in bring Pwc-ians around is there.

Since this thread been discussing about EY and PWC, I will just tumpang a few queries here.

In term of banking portfolio, which firm offer the better career outlook if we were to join banking industry in the future as ex-auditor. Or is there any department which can offer better learning opportunity?

AND for anyone whom had gone through the interview for this 2 firms, mind sharing any tips for it?

EY friendlier approach, like talking to a friend. PwC same but can sense the professionalism in the way they speak.
