and….this is exactly why I left price. all the best to my ex workmates
and partners. not everyone in a Big 4 is an asshole, but the firm did make
me want to killmyself several times daily. it may have actually been
successful in killing my hopes in dreams lol
It can be difficult for large companies, firms, or managers to foster a
friendly work environment. It seems that at least some of them want an
unrealistic workload to be completed in an unrealistic time.
I used to work at PwC in tax for 5 years. I didn’t know what a humane
workplace is until I quit and got a corporate tax job one block down. When
I hear someone say PwC I get goosebumps and laugh so hard when I see
college students dream about working at the Big Four.
Haha, this is so depressing. Luckily I never got hooked into the Big 4
public accounting life. Went private right out of college, in some ways it
hurts your career but at least I never felt like killing myself and I
enjoyed my 20’s.
@derrickhnj That’s one good thing about working in accounting for the
government. At least at the IRS, you get to actually have a life outside of
work.
Lol this is hilarious!!

on the job…..

accounting.

This couldnt be more of an exact replica of how it is to work at big 4.
This was great, im more or less exactly in this position right now. I cant
wait to leave this hole after finishing my CA.
Haha this is so true!
